It was almost a year ago that we began telling you about Magic/Bird, an upcoming Broadway production that chronicles the lives of NBA legends Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. Now the show has found a home on the Great White Way. The production will reside at the Longacre Theatre, with previews beginning on March 21st and opening night set for April 11th.
Magic/Bird will star actor Kevin Daniels as Earvin “Magic” Johnson and Tug Coker in the role of Larry Bird. The story traces the stars’ competition and friendship from their days as NBA rookies to their appearance on the 1992 Olympic Dream Team. As hoop fans of that era will remember, Johnson and Bird played integral roles in the historic rivalry between the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers during the 1980s.
While tickets aren’t available yet, we’ll let you know as soon as that changes. Who knows – maybe you can get that sports fan in your life to a Broadway show yet!
And that’s today’s ShowBus Buzz. We’ll be back early next week with our next blog update. Please join us then.
