Audra returning to Broadway...? — Page 3

Doing a bit of research to try to figure out which show Audra will be in. The only problem is I'm not too familiar with plays so I need some help!

Criteria: Must be a play that has previously been on Broadway, as it is a revival, by a living writer, that will have two shows running simultaneously on Broadway, by the time this opens. (Thanks SomethingPeculiar!)

Here are the possibilities guesses by author!

Terrence McNally (Anastasia) - The Ritz, Mothers and Sons, It's Only a Play, Deuce, And Things That Go Bump in the Night, Ravenswood, Dunelawn, Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune (This show has a major male and female role, and according to SomethingPeculiar she has an Academy award and Tony-nominated acting co-star)

Rick Elice (The Cher Show) - Peter & the Starcatcher

Lee Hall (Network) - The Pitmen Painters

Harvey Fierstein (Kinky Boots, Torch Song) - Casa Valentina

Aaron Sorkin (To Kill a Mockingbird) - The Farnsworth Invention, A Few Good Men

Kenneth Lonergan (Waverly Gallery) - This is Our Youth, Lobby Hero

Kenneth Lonergan (Waverly Gallery) - This is Our Youth, Lobby Hero"

Rehearsals started for Mockingbird today. Any chance there's been a change in the casting of Calpurnia? And A Few Good Men does have one woman in the cast (my son was in the play just last year).

The correct show has not been mentioned by anyone yet.

Could she be returning to Master Class?

I went through every living playwright for all musicals and plays that are either currently on Broadway or coming to Broadway soon. Was there a key detail missed?

Are you considering a revival a show that has previously played off-Broadway but not on Broadway? This is the only thing I can think of that would have made me miss whatever show it is.

There was one (not especially well received) at Second Stage in 2014. And then, of course, the aborted Roundabout production of a few years earlier.

No one has mentioned Lanford Wilson yet. Talley's Folly?

Is it just the two of them or are there other roles in this production? Have those roles been cast?
