New York City, Here We Come!!

We're getting really excited for our next trip to NYC-- it's been too long! We will be staying four nights and seeing seven productions (yes, we are insane). Our schedule is a star-packed mix of old chestnuts and new plays.
Guys and Dolls--a new revival starring Lauren Graham and Oliver Platt
Hedda Gabbler--a new translation of Ibsen's classic starring Mary-Louise Parker and Tony-award winner, Michael Cervantes
Becky Shaw--a new drama by Gina Gionfriddo playing Off-Broadway
Blithe Spirit--a revival of Noel Coward's play with an all-star cast that includes Angela Lansberry, Christine Ebersole, and Rupert Everett
Ruined--a new play at the NY City Center which had an acclaimed run in Chicago (our pal Casey predicts it will win the Pulitzer this year)
Impressionism--a new play by Michael Jacobs starring Tony winners Jeremy Irons and Joan Allen
God of Carnage--the Broadway premiere of a new "comedy of manners . . . without the manners" starring James Gandolfini, Marcia Gay Harden, Jeff Daniels, and Hope Davis
Shoud be a great trip!
