Lin-Manuel Miranda, Jimmy Fallon, Join Broadway Cast of ‘All In’
Lin-Manuel Miranda will take over from John Mulaney in the Broadway cast of All In: Comedy About Love, with castmates including Jimmy Fallon, Hank Azaria, Aidy Bryant and more.
Mulaney will lead the cast, including Saturday Night Live stars Fred Armisen and Chloe Fineman, Girls5Eva‘s Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Richard Kind, for the first five weeks of the play. He is in the show from Dec. 11 through Jan. 12.
In addition to Miranda, Fallon, Azaria and Bryant, the cast for the second five weeks includes Andrew Rannells, Sam Richardson, David Cross and Tim Meadows. Miranda leads the cast from Jan. 14 through Feb. 16.
The play, written by Simon Rich and directed by Alex Timbers, will run at the Hudson Theatre.
Bryant is in the cast from Jan. 14 through Feb. 2. Rannells appears from Jan. 14 through Jan. 26.
Richardson appears from Jan. 14 through Feb. 2. Fallon appears from Jan. 28 through Feb. 2. Cross appears from Feb. 4 through Feb. 9. Meadows appears from Feb. 4 through Feb. 16. Azaria appears from Feb. 11 through Feb. 16.
The show features a series of humorous stories about dating, heartbreak, marriage and more, adapted from short stories by Rich. “Sometimes they will play pirates, sometimes they will play dogs, and there’s one where we make them talk in British accents. But even though the show’s kind of all over the place, it’s meant to tell one simple story: that the most important part of life is who we share it with,” the production description reads.
The musical duo The Bengsons (Abigail and Shaun Bengson) will perform songs live on stage from The Magnetic Fields.
Seaview and Lorne Michaels with New Yorker Studios are producing the show on Broadway.
