Producers Aaron Glick and No Guarantees Productions, in association with Manhattan Theatre Club (Nicki Hunter, Artistic Director and Chris Jennings, Executive Director), are pleased to announce that three-time Tony Award winner Patti LuPone will star as the iconic Diana Vreeland in a new production of the one-woman play Full Gallop, written by Mark Hampton and Mary Louise Wilson.
The production, directed by Gordon Greenberg (Rope and The Baker’s Wife), will start performances on Friday, January 8, 2027 for a strictly limited 12-week engagement at NY City Center, Stage II (131 West 55th Street). Opening night is January 17, 2027.
Before Anna, Before Miranda, There was Diana.
She turned fashion into an empire. But when Diana Vreeland (LuPone) is unceremoniously fired as editor-in-chief of Vogue, she must reinvent herself, and her industry, yet again. Full Gallop is a rare visit with the unstoppable force who shaped how we look at style—and ourselves.
Tickets for Full Gallop will go on sale at a later date. Sign up at www.fullgalloplive.com for information. The production will be included in MTC’s six-play subscriptions. For a limited time, the production will also be offered for advance purchase to select MTC Subscribers and Patrons as a special add-on event.
After its world premiere at San Diego’s Old Globe Theatre in 1995, Full Gallop had its New York premiere at MTC’s Stage II, where it now returns. That earlier production, which starred co-author Mary Louise Wilson, played an extended run Off-Broadway at the Westside Theatre. The play went on to multiple productions throughout North America, Europe, Asia and Africa.
