Just got an email from Lincoln Center Theater (LCT) announcing that Andre Bishop will step down from the role of Producing Artistic Director in 2025 after over 30 years at LCT.
During Bishop's tenure LCT developed or revived musicals such as The Light in the Piazza (by Adam Guettel and Craig Lucas), Contact (Susan Stroman and John Weidman), Parade (Jason Robert Brown and Alfred Uhry), Falsettos (William Finn and James Lapine), Flying Over Sunset (Tom Kitt, Michael Korie and James Lapine) and many, many more.
Before joining LCT in 1992 Bishop was artistic director of Playwrights Horizons for ten years, where he developed shows such as Falsettos, Sunday in the Park with George and Assassins.
Bishop has won countless awards, including 17 “best production” Tony Awards, and was inducted into the Theater Hall of Fame in 2012.
