“Wicked” stars Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey are teaming up again.

The duo will star in a new stage production of Stephen Sondheim’s legendary musical, “Sunday In The Park With George,” according to an announcement made on social media Wednesday.

The musical will debut in summer 2027 at London’s Barbican Centre. It is set to be directed by Marianne Elliott and feature the work of award winning costume designer Tom Scutt.

Earlier on Wednesday, Grande and Bailey jointly posted a photo of themselves on Instagram sitting in front of Georges Seurat’s famous painting “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.”

That masterpiece, painted from 1884 to 1886, was the inspiration for the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical “Sunday in the Park with George” and there is a report that Grande and Bailey will star in a London revival of the Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine hit.

Deadline reported exclusively last month that the revival was in the early stages of planning.

“All it has to be is good,” Bailey wrote in the caption of their Instagram photo, a key line from the musical, which revolves around Seurat creating his painting, further convincing people that the pair are set to work together again in the West End production.

The original production of the play opened off Broadway in 1983 starring Bernadette Peters and Mandy Patinkin before moving to Broadway the following year.

It won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1985 and also snagged two Tony Awards.

CNN has reached out to representatives for Grande and Bailey for comment.
