Just after World War I, the loneliest of souls arrives at an Italian villa disguised as a handsome young Prince. For the first time, Death experiences the joys and heartbreaks of life.

DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY began as a 1929 play by Alberto Casella. In 1934, the play was adapted into a beloved film starring Fredric March as Death disguised as a debonair nobleman. In 1998, the film was remade as MEET JOE BLACK, starring Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins. The musical, with score and lyrics by Maury Yeston (NINE, TITANIC) and book by Thomas Meehan (ANNIE, THE PRODUCERS) and Peter Stone (1776), premiered off-Broadway on July 14, 2011 at the Laura Pels Theatre as a Roundabout Theatre Company production.
"Timeless appeal... One lush, soaring number after another... a melody-rich score that draws on a wide range of influences, from the Baroque to the British poperetta craze of the 1980s." – The New York Times
Named one of Time magazine's Top Ten Musicals of the 2011-12 season. Nominated for 11 Drama Desk Awards.
