Julia Louis-Dreyfus is set to make her Broadway debut in a revival of Jon Robin Baitz’s Tony Award-winning play “Other Desert Cities.” Multiple outlets report that the production will star Louis-Dreyfus alongside Ed Harris and Allison Janney, with Joe Keery and Lily Rabe also appearing in the cast. The revival is directed by Tony Award winner John Benjamin Hickey and is planned as a limited engagement at Broadway’s Hudson Theatre.
Reporting differs slightly on timing details, but all sources agree on a fall 2026 schedule that begins with previews in late September and leads into an opening later in October. Variety specifies previews starting Sept. 29 and an opening night on Oct. 18, while The New York Times and other outlets broadly place performances in September at the Hudson Theatre.
The production is described as a Broadway revival of “Other Desert Cities,” featuring the same principal ensemble named across the outlets. Collectively, the coverage frames the casting as a notable event for Louis-Dreyfus’s stage debut and underscores the play’s prior acclaim.
