Reprise was founded by Marcia Seligson, who served as Producing Artistic Director until 2005, and was dedicated to producing rarely revived, classic Broadway musicals. In the past ten years, they have revived the glorious musical creations of Irving Berlin, the Gershwins, Frank Loesser, Jule Styne, Kurt Weill, Bock & Harnick, Leonard Bernstein, Rodgers & Hart, Jerry Herman, Cy Coleman, Stephen Sondheim, the list goes on. Reprise has expanded their mission to include all musicals that deserve to be seen, either in their original form or with a new, fresh take.

Reprise Broadway's Best is a not-for-profit corporation.

This is a not to be missed event. There are no bad seats at the Ford but it's definitely worth getting as close as possible to the stage.
