The upcoming Broadway premiere of The Bridges of Madison County, which was set to begin performances on January 13, 2014, has delayed its start date until January 17. Jason Robert Brown and Marsha Norman's new musical, starring Tony nominee Kelli O'Hara and Steven Pasquale, will still officially open on February 27 at the Schoenfeld Theatre.
