Overview
- Jackson confirmed on Tuesday that he will reprise George Washington at the Richard Rodgers Theatre from Sept. 8, 2026, through Jan. 3, 2027.
- The actor called the engagement a “deeply meaningful homecoming” and said rejoining the company will challenge him artistically in a way he has missed.
- Producer Jeffrey Seller said Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote the role with Jackson’s voice in mind and framed this as a final limited chance to see his Washington.
- Jackson is set to perform signature Washington songs including “Right Hand Man,” “History Has Its Eyes on You,” and “Yorktown,” and tickets are on sale at BroadwayDirect.com.
- The return continues a trend of original-cast homecomings that began during Hamilton’s 10th-anniversary events and follows Leslie Odom Jr.’s 2025 reprise, which pushed weekly box office totals above $4 million.
