NEW YORK, May 18 (UPI) -- The first Broadway revival of Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler's "A Little Night Music" is to close next month, the stage musical's producers said Tuesday.

The show stars Catherine Zeta-Jones, Angela Lansbury and Alexander Hanson. It is to play its final performance June 20 after 20 previews and 217 regular performances.

Directed by Tony Award-winner Trevor Nunn, the production began previews Nov. 24, 2009, and opened Dec. 13, 2009, at Manhattan's Walter Kerr Theatre.

"A Little Night Music" recently earned four 2010 Tony Award nominations, including those for Best Revival of a Musical, Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Musical for Zeta-Jones, Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical for Lansbury, and Best Sound Design of a Musical for Dan Moses Schreier and Gareth Owen.
