Step right up, baseball fans and devil-bargaining dreamers — Damn Yankees is rounding the bases back to Broadway in Spring 2027, and this time it’s wearing a brand-new uniform.

Director-choreographer Sergio Trujillo (Ain’t Too Proud, Jersey Boys) is steering a reimagined revisal of the 1955 Adler & Ross classic, with a fresh book by Tony winner Doug Wright and Will Power and additional lyrics from Ragtime‘s Lynn Ahrens. The new spin shifts the action to the early-2000s Yankees dynasty, recasts Joe Hardy as a Black ballplayer reckoning with his father’s Negro Leagues legacy, and keeps the Lola, the Devil, and “Whatever Lola Wants” all firmly in the lineup. The production builds on a critically-praised tryout at Arena Stage in fall 2025.

Theater, casting, and exact preview dates haven’t been announced yet — Equity auditions are running this May and rehearsals start in January 2027. We’ll update this page the second the marquee lights up.
