Ruben Santiago-Hudson is bringing the Blues to the Great White Way in 2022.

The Broadway premiere of the 63-year-old half-Puerto Rican actor, playwright, and director’s Lackawanna Blues has been set for 2021, with producers at the Manhattan Theatre Club expressing “hopes high that we will be able to return to live theatre.”

The nonprofit MTC announced the target opening on Monday, along with plans to present an Off Broadway production of Simon Stephens’ Morning Sun starring Edie Falco and the American premiere of Anchuli Felicia King’s Golden Shield.

MTC artistic director Lynne Meadow said, “With hopes high that we will be able to return to live theatre, we have created a season of diverse and exciting Broadway and Off Broadway premieres and we are honored to be working with the very best of New York’s brilliant artistic community.”

Santiago-Hudson’s Lackawanna Blues, to be performed and directed by the playwright with original music by Bill Sims Jr., will debut in Fall of 2021 at MTC’s Samuel J. Friedman Theatre.

Santiago-Hudson earned a Tony Award in 1996 for his performance in Seven Guitars.
