Can’t get to Broadway before the Tony Awards? BroadwayHD has the next best thing — a front-row seat from your living room.
Roundabout Theatre Company’s acclaimed revival of Noël Coward’s sparkling comedy Fallen Angels streams live on BroadwayHD during the Friday, June 5, 2026, 7 p.m. performance, giving theater lovers everywhere one of the final chances to catch the production before it closes on June 7.
A Stellar Company
Directed by Scott Ellis, the revival stars Academy Award nominee Rose Byrne and Tony winner Kelli O’Hara — both Tony-nominated this season for their dazzling performances. They’re joined by Drama Desk winner Tracee Chimo, Emmy winner Mark Consuelos in his Broadway debut, Tony nominee Christopher Fitzgerald, and Obie winner Aasif Mandvi, with understudies Tina Benko, Christopher Innvar, Max Gordon Moore, and Laura Shoop.
“We’re thrilled to be working with Roundabout to bring this stellar production of Noël Coward’s comedy to BroadwayHD, so audiences around the world can watch it from the comfort of their homes ahead of this year’s Tony Awards,” said BroadwayHD co-founders Stewart F. Lane and Bonnie Comley. “The incredible cast are sure to make you laugh all night long.”
A Century of Coward
Coward wrote Fallen Angels at just 24, and it shows — in the best way. The comedy premiered in London’s West End on April 21, 1925, running 158 performances, and opened on Broadway in 1927 at the 49th Street Theatre. This revival marks Broadway’s first encounter with the play in 70 years; it was last seen there in 1956, when it ran 239 performances at the Playhouse Theatre.
The plot is pure champagne farce: two upper-class wives, husbands conveniently away, cocktails flowing — until the women discover they once shared the same lover, who may be arriving from France at any moment. Old rivalries resurface, secrets bubble up, and Coward’s razor-sharp observations about love and marriage explode into comic chaos.
The livestream will be directed for the screen by Annette Jolles, with a top-tier creative team including scenic designer David Rockwell, costume designer Jeff Mahshie, lighting designer Kenneth Posner, and sound designer John Gromada. The production began performances March 27 and opened April 19, 2026, at the Todd Haimes Theatre.
For anyone who can’t make it to New York, this is about as close as it gets to being there.
