(LOS ANGELES, CA) APRIL 23, 2019 – Destiny’s Child is a staple in the Black community, and pop culture as a whole. So it comes to no surprise that a broadway musical is in the works, according to Mathew Knowles, the original manager of Destiny’s Child (and Beyoncé’s father).

According to the press release, Knowles is teaming up with Je’Caryous Johnson to bring Destiny’s Child to the stage. “I am ecstatic to be working with Mr. Knowles on the development of Survivor: The Destiny’s Child Musical,” says Johnson. “It is a unique and inspiring story that will fearlessly tackle hard truths, while bringing both vindication and healing to all who lived it. It’s fair, it’s real and it’s an absolute honor to know that Mr. Knowles trusts me to pen and produce such an iconic piece of American history.”
