Now, through March 3, 2024, rush tickets purchased at the box office are priced at $19.65, inclusive of fees. In-person rush is available on performance days starting when the box office opens and until tickets are sold out, with a limit of two tickets per person. Rush tickets are subject to availability on a first come, first served basis. A Sign of the Times began previews February 8, 2024, and opened on February 22, 2024 at New World Stages (340 West 50th Street). Tickets are also on sale at Telecharge.com. A Sign of the Times stars Chilina Kennedy (Broadway: Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Paradise Square) as Cindy, two-time Drama Desk nominee Ryan Silverman (Broadway: The Phantom of the Opera, Chicago) as Brian, Justin Matthew Sargent (Broadway: Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, Rock of Ages) as Matt, Akron Lanier Watson (Broadway: Hamilton, The Play That Goes Wrong, The Color Purple) as Cody and Tony Award nominee Crystal Lucas-Perry (Broadway: 1776, Ain't No Mo) as Tanya. The cast also features Cassie Austin (National Tour: Hello, Dolly!), Erica Simone Barnett (Broadway: Matilda the Musical), Alyssa Carol (Broadway: Bad Cinderella), Melessie Clark (Regional: Once on This Island, Into the Woods), Jeremiah Ginn (New York: The Immersive Great Gatsby, Murder for Two), Kuppi Alec Jessop (Regional: Mamma Mia!, Legally Blonde), Lena Teresa Matthews (National Tour: Jesus Christ Superstar), Maggie McDowell (Broadway: Kinky Boots, Disaster!), J Savage (Broadway: Bad Cinderella), Justin Showell (National Tour: Hamilton; Off-Broadway: Buena Vista Social Club), Michael Starr (Broadway: Bright Star) and Edward Staudenmayer (Broadway: Girl from the North Country, Martin Short: Fame Becomes Me).

A Sign of the Times had its world premiere at Goodspeed Musicals' Norma Terris Theatre in 2016 and played a sold out, critically acclaimed run at the Delaware Theatre Company in 2018. Delaware News Journal called the show, "Infectious & rocking! The funny, candy-colored musical struts across the stage with catchy songs and 1960s issues that resonate today." The Philadelphia Inquirer said, "the electricity reverberates across the stage." Broad Street Review raved that the show is full of, "sheer exuberance! The music never stops." The year is 1965. Vietnam was only part of the news. It was an era of Black Power, equal rights, and social wrongs. Journey back to America's most turbulent decade as a young woman tries to make her way in New York City. A totally original story with such classic songs as "Downtown," "Gimme Some Lovin'," "Rescue Me," and "I Know A Place," plus dozens more, A Sign of the Times explodes with the music you love and the spirit that shaped a generation—and our own. The creative team features set design by Evan Adamson (associate designer for The Music Man, Leopoldstadt), costume design by Johanna Pan (Broadway: assistant designer for Sweeney Todd, Hangmen), lighting design by Tony Award winner Ken Billington (Broadway: Chicago, Sweeney Todd), sound design by Shannon Slaton (Broadway: Melissa Etheridge: My Window; The Illusionists), projection design by Brad Peterson (Broadway: associate designer for Camelot, Pictures from Home) and hair, wig and makeup design by J. Jared Janas (Broadway: Purlie Victorious, Sweeney Todd). Music Director is Britt Bonney. Casting is by JZ Casting. About The York Theatre Company The York Theatre Company, "Where Musicals Come to Life," is the only theatre in New York City — and one of very few in the world — dedicated to developing and fully producing new musicals and preserving notable shows from the past. For over five decades, York's intimate, imaginative style of producing both original and classic musicals has resulted in critical acclaim and recognition from artists and audiences alike. Under the guidance of Producing Artistic Director James Morgan since 1997, The York has focused on new musicals in its Mainstage Series — most of them world, American, or New York premieres — by some of the field's most esteemed creators and has also helped launch the careers of many talented new writers. Over 45 cast recordings from York Theatre Company productions are now available, including its acclaimed revival of Closer Than Ever (2013 Off-Broadway Alliance Award for Best Revival). One of the signatures of The York is the Musicals in Mufti series, which triumphantly returned this August with 4 shows after 4 years. The York is the recipient of a special Drama Desk Award for "Developing and Producing New Musicals," and a special Outer Critics Circle Award for "50 Years of Producing New and Classic Musicals." Due to a flood in January 2021 in their home of 30 years at Saint Peter's Church, The York is currently producing at The Theatre at St. Jean's at 76th Street and Lexington Avenue. The York is currently presenting The Jerusalem Syndrome, a musical comedy of Biblical proportions. # # # PRODUCTION INFORMATION A Sign of the Times Book by Lindsey Hope Pearlman Conceived by Richard J.
