Before making her Broadway debut, Lady Di is heading to Netflix.
“Diana,” a musical based on the life of the Princess of Wales, will premiere on Netflix next year ahead of its opening on the Great White Way.
The show was in previews, and expected to premiere on March 31, when Broadway shut down in mid-March to help stop the spread of coronavirus. Theaters will remain closed through the rest of 2020. “Diana” is now set to open on the stage on May 25, 2021, over a year later than originally planned.
“We speak for the entire company when we say that we couldn’t be more excited to finally be able share our show with theater lovers everywhere,” the producers of “Diana” said in a statement. “Though there is no substitute for the live theater, we are honored to be a part of the quality entertainment that Netflix provides its subscribers worldwide.” (variety.com)
