Lin-Manuel Miranda announces cast, Broadway debut date for 'Warriors'
Lin-Manuel Miranda is bringing his new musical, "Warriors," to Broadway.
The "Hamilton" creator announced the cast for the upcoming production, which he co-wrote with Eisa Davis, ahead of its first preview performance March 9, 2027, at Broadway's Lunt-Fontanne Theatre in New York City.
The musical is scheduled to officially open April 8, 2027, with tickets going on sale to the general public this Thursday, Oct. 22.
Among the cast members is Jasmine Cephas Jones, who previously worked with Miranda in the original Broadway production of "Hamilton," originating the dual roles of Peggy Schuyler and Maria Reynolds.
The cast also includes Jaci Calderon, Aneesa Folds, Amber Gray, Julia Harriman, Sasha Hutchings, Gizel Jiménez, Kenita R. Miller, Sasha Allen, Casey Likes and Donald Webber Jr.
Additional cast members will be announced at a later date.
Several cast members have previously collaborated with Miranda, appearing in productions of "Hamilton" and "In the Heights" or on the "Warriors" concept album.
Inspired the 1979 film "The Warriors," which adapted Sol Yurick's 1965 novel of the same name, the musical follows a fictional New York City gang from Coney Island after they're framed for the murder of a respected gang leader.
Miranda and Davis released a concept album for the musical in 2024, featuring performances by Lauryn Hill, Billy Porter, Busta Rhymes and other artists.
