As I suspected, Eddie Redmayne will reprise his turn as the Emcee in the Broadway season of Rebecca Frecknall's production of Cabaret. Gayle Rankin will star as Sally Bowes.

Performances will start April 1 2024 at the August Wilson Theatre, which is being renovated, to designer Tom Scutt’s specifications, for conversion into the decadent Berlin club in which the musical is set. (Tickets go on sale to the general public on Nov. 2 at 10 a.m. Eastern at kitkat.club.)

From the Post story:

“It’s just been a character that has swum around inside me for 25 years,” the 41-year-old Redmayne said in a Zoom interview, explaining that he first played the Emcee in high school. “My mum dug out a very embarrassing video the other day of my 15-year-old version, and I’m not sure a lot has changed, to be honest,” he added, laughing.
