The intention to move the Berkeley Repertory Theatre’s smash hit to New York was revealed November 9th, when a casting notice seeking performers for the Broadway staging of the show was made public. The notice gave no details as to when production on the Broadway American Idiot will begin, or what actors will carry over from the Berkeley Repertory run. The musical premiered in September and was eventually extended five additional weeks past its original run, making it the top-grossing show in the Berkeley Repertory Theatre’s history, Playbillwrites.
