Tennessee Williams’ “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” is returning to Broadway next season in a new production directed by Tony winner Sam Gold. Performances of the play’s sixth Broadway revival will begin in the spring of 2027\. The show’s theater, as well as the cast and creative team, will be announced at a later date.

“*‘*Cat on a Hot Tin Roof*’* is the pinnacle of what the theater can do,” said Gold in a statement. “Two of the greatest roles for actors in the canon, delivered to us by the world’s most original playwright, at the very height of his poetic powers, exploring themes that feel as shockingly honest and blood boiling today as they did 70 years ago. I couldn’t be more excited to bring this masterpiece back to New York next season.”
