‘Harold and the Purple Crayon’ Heads to Broadway With Music by AJR

“Harold and the Purple Crayon” is coming to the Broadway stage, but this time the young artist will be all grown up.

Tiwary Entertainment Group’s TEG Plus has acquired the stage rights to the beloved children’s book by Crockett Johnson — with plans to adapt it into a Broadway production. The “Harold and the Purple Crayon” musical will feature new and original songs composed by pop group AJR’s Jack and Ryan Met. TEG Plus is still in the process of securing a book writer for the Broadway adaptation.
