Jonathan Burrows began his professional career as an assistant stage
director at the New York City Opera in 1966 with Placido Domingo in
"Carmen" and "Madama Butterfly", Beverly Sills in "The Tales of
Hoffman" & many more. Two years later he was producing theatre in New
York, presenting three off-Broadway plays (Athol Fugard's "Hello &
Goodbye" directed by George C. Scott, starring Martin Sheen & Coleen
Dewhurst, "Contributions" starring Claudia McNeil, the national tour of
"The Mad Show") and "Fire" on Broadway (1969), prior to turning his
attention to the film industry. He started as an assistant director for
David Lean on "Ryan's Daughter" (MGM, 1970), then to the executive
training program at Columbia Pictures, and subsequently as a Production
Executive and in other capacities on seventeen more major films
including "A Delicate Balance" (Katharine Hepburn), "The Iceman Cometh"
(Lee Marvin, Jeff Bridges), "Rhinoceros" (Zero Mostel), "The
Homecoming" (Ian Holm), "The Man in the Glass Booth" (Maximilian
Schell), with producer credits on "Texasville" (Columbia, 1990) and
"Fletch" (Universal, 1984).
He now divides his schedule between Los Angeles and New York City, where he is also active in the family real estate business. Among his leisure time pursuits are golf and polo, which he plays not only at the Santa Barbara Polo Club but internationally as well. He is also an instrument rated multi-engine private pilot and regularly flies several hours a week. He and his wife Annie are collectors of modern and contemporary art and are the parents of fifteen year old Zane Lowell Burrows and Lili Grace Burrows, who is eleven.
Jonathan is currently preparing a Broadway production of Cole Porter's 1953 musical "Can-Can" for the New York winter season 2014-2015. He discovered this new production of "Can-Can" at the Pasadena Playhouse several years ago and presented a showcase version of it in NYC in July 2013. It also played four weeks as a pre-Broadway tryout in October 2014 at a New York regional theatre, the Paper Mill Playhouse, Millburn, NJ. He's now waiting for a Broadway house to become available.
