This Tony Award®–winning Best Musical, suffused with an award-winning score by Maury Yeston and book by Arthur Kopit, is based on the groundbreaking Federico Fellini film 8½. The spectacular musical adaptation features one man and the dozens of women in his life. Celebrated but impulsive film director Guido Contini, succumbing to the pressures of filming his latest epic, suffers a midlife crisis. One by one, women from his past and present—including his mother, his wife, his mistress, and his leading lady—haunt, instruct, scold, seduce, and encourage him.

Nine includes musical direction by Lily Ling, scenic design by Tony Award® winner Derek McLane, lighting design by Cory Pattak, costume design by Alejo Vietti, projection design by Paul Tate DePoo III, sound design by Haley Parcher, and wig design by Tom Watson. The production stage manager is Matthew Lacey. Casting is by Geoff Josselson.

Tickets for Broadway Center Stage: Nine are now on-sale via the Kennedy Center website, in-person at the box office, or by calling 202-467-4600.

The Broadway Center Stage series, now in its fifth season, has been acclaimed by the Washington Post as “a raging success at the Kennedy Center reflecting a Broadway sheen.” Its hit production of Monty Python’s SPAMALOT recently enjoyed a critically-acclaimed Broadway engagement and will embark on a national tour in 2025.
