It’s official! The cast recording of the recent, highly acclaimed, sold-out Broadway revival of Sunday in the Park with George, starring Jake Gyllenhaal in his Broadway debut and Tony-wining actress Annaleigh Ashford, is set for digital download and streaming release September 22nd via the Arts Music division at Warner Music Group, with the CD version to be released in November.
The show, which was widely praised by critics and recouped its investment in just 56 performances, follows painter Georges Seurat in the months leading up to the completion of his most famous painting, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, and its reverberations both in the present and 100 years into the future. Of Gyllenhaal’s performance, The New York Times’ Ben Brantley declared that “it’s impossible not to fall in love.”
Now, with the release of the cast recording, those who were unable to experience the production live will have the opportunity to hear for themselves.
