Director Matthew Warchus, lead actor Andy Karl, and librettist Danny Rubin(pictured above, left to right), discuss Groundhog Day, their new Broadway musical adapted from the classic 1993 film of the same name that Rubin conceived of solo (wanting to write a screenplay about immortality), and eventually co-wrote with the film’s director, the late Harold Ramis.
