Today, Schumacher announced that he is leaving his role of president and producer of Disney Theatrical Group (DTG) after three decades, telling staff this morning that he’ll segue into a purely creative role as the division’s Chief Creative Officer.

Andrew Flatt and Anne Quart, who have long worked closely with Schumacher, will jointly run the DTG as executive vice presidents.

During Schumacher reign atop DTG's business operations he saw the division become a major player on Broadway and in the nation’s regional theaters, with such powerhouse productions as The Lion King and Aladdin becoming longrunning and touring stage staples.
