Susan Stroman and John Weidman’s 'Contact' made history during its original 1999 Broadway premiere at Lincoln Center Theater’s Vivian Beaumont Theater, running for an astonishing 1,010 performances and capturing the Tony Award for Best Musical. Conceived as a revolutionary, high-octane "dance-play," the non-verbal production completely discarded live musicians to utilize a swinging, recorded swing and classical soundtrack to choreograph three distinct vignettes exploring human loneliness and desire. The blockbuster flagship production achieved immortality through the unmatched performances of Boyd Gaines, Karen Ziemba, and Deborah Yates as the iconic "Girl in the Yellow Dress."
