BroadwayHD livestreamed Roundabout Theatre Company’s Broadway revival of Fallen Angels on June 5, 2026, beginning at 7 PM ET, and the broadcast was made available on demand for two weeks through June 19, 2026.
The streaming event captured the production in its final Broadway week: Fallen Angels opened at the Todd Haimes Theatre on April 19 after beginning previews March 27 and closed at the Todd Haimes Theatre on June 7, 2026, following 25 previews and 57 regular performances. The revival earned five Tony Award nominations, including Best Revival, and both Rose Byrne and Kelli O'Hara received Tony nods for their performances.
Scott Ellis directed the staging, which placed Byrne and O'Hara at the center of a cast that also included Tracee Chimo, Mark Consuelos, Christopher Fitzgerald and Aasif Mandvi; understudies listed on the production included Tina Benko, Christopher Innvar, Max Gordon Moore and Laura Shoop. The livestream extended the limited engagement beyond the theater’s seats, giving BroadwayHD subscribers a window to see the production after curtain.
The timing mattered: the June 5 stream hit the service during the run’s final days and offered an on-demand viewing window that ran through June 19, allowing viewers who missed the live broadcast to watch for two weeks. The stream gave subscribers and fans — particularly those following Byrne and O'Hara — access to a revival that returned the play to Broadway after a long absence; Fallen Angels had last played Broadway 70 years earlier when it opened at the Playhouse Theatre on January 17, 1956, and ran 239 performances.
The play’s history casts the broadcast in a different light. Noël Coward’s comedy, first staged in London in 1925 and brought to Broadway in 1927, once drew censors for its frank depiction of women acknowledging premarital sex. That sensitivity marked early productions; the Roundabout revival, by contrast, was explicitly presented to a modern, streamed audience, a shift from private stage runs to a public digital doorway.
Even with the stream’s clear reach — live at 7 PM ET on June 5 and available through June 19 — one concrete measure remains unreported: how many BroadwayHD subscribers watched the June 5 broadcast or used the subsequent on-demand window. The company provided the platform and the two-week access; audience totals for the livestream were not released as the revival left the Todd Haimes Theatre on June 7.
For viewers who missed the live show, the two-week on-demand window was the practical next step: the stream remained available through June 19, 2026. For the production’s backers and for historians noting the play’s fraught past, the unanswered figure is whether the digital run reached a significantly larger or different audience than the theater run — a metric that will determine, in hard numbers, how far this Fallen Angels Broadway revival traveled beyond the house lights.
