Broadway: “Diana,” the Musical That Won’t Go Away, Going First to Netflix then Opens Dec. 16th

Share

Princess Diana always went her own way. Her musical is following suit.

“Diana The Musical” almost opened a year ago. The pandemic caused it to go dark before opening night. The buzz wasn’t great anyway.

Now Diana will return on December 1st for previews before an opening on the 16th.

But first there will be a TV special to edition on Netflix October 1st. This will either stoke interest or kill the show for good. Producers are betting on the former.

Diana will no doubt benefit from all the Meghan Markle controversies. You can bet on loads of articles on whether Prince Harry and his wife will come see it.
