Britney Coleman to Star in ‘Company’ North American Tour

Matthew Herzog

Producers of the Tony Award winning Best Musical Revival of Stephen Sondheim’s and George Furth’s Company announced that Britney Coleman will return to the hit musical comedy starring as Bobbie in the North American tour.

Director Marianne Elliott said, “I am so thrilled that Company is heading to theatres across North America. The production is filled with such joy and brings back wonderful memories of collaborating with Stephen Sondheim on his and George Furth’s musical comedy masterpiece. I am also so excited that the wonderful Britney Coleman will be leading our company as BOBBIE. Having worked with her on Broadway I know what an incredible talent she is and what a treat our audiences are in for!”

As previously announced, Company will launch a North American tour this October, visiting more than 25 cities in the 2023-2024 season. For a complete list of engagements that have been announced, please click here or visit CompanyMusical.com.

Additional casting and public on-sale dates will be announced later.

Company, the musical comedy masterpiece about the search for love and cocktails in New York, is turned on its head in Elliott’s revelatory staging, in which musical theatre’s most iconic bachelor is now a bachelorette. At Bobbie’s 35th birthday party, all her friends are wondering why isn’t she married? Why can’t she find the right man? And, why can’t she settle down and have a family? This whip smart musical comedy, given a game-changing makeover for a modern-day Manhattan, features some of Sondheim’s best loved songs, including “Company,” “You Could Drive a Person Crazy,” “The Ladies Who Lunch,” “Side by Side,” and the iconic “Being Alive.”

The creative team for Company includes Liam Steel (choreography), Joel Fram (musical supervisor, additional vocal arrangements), Tony Award winner Bunny Christie (set and costume design), Tony Award nominee Neil Austin (lighting design), Tony Award nominee Ian Dickinson (sound design), Tony Award nominee David Cullen (orchestrations), Sam Davis (dance arrangements), Chris Fisher (illusions), Campbell Young Associates (hair, wig, and makeup design) and Tara Rubin (casting).
