This cast does not quit! What a group.
It feels like this season's Normal Heart, with all the big names.

A great cast! I'm a big fan of Vidal's work (well, his less didactic work anyway), and just said in another thread how I think any good play can be revived without feeling dated... But I do wonder if Best Man will seem dated now, even if some of its themes are as relevant, if not more, than ever.
(When is someone gonna do a Myra Breckinridge musical already? :) )

Posted: 11/30/11 at 6:19pmthis is really an all-star line-up. not a big fan of this play, but I may have to revisit it if possible. any thoughts to what theatre it'll play. Maybe the Barrymore, Lyceum or Cort??

Death of a Salesman is going to the Barrymore this spring, and if The Lyons is transfering like they say they are, I can see it going into the Lyceum, like most of the other Vineyard transfers.

Posted: 11/30/11 at 6:55pmI would say either The Longacre or The Cort depending if either Stick Fly or Chinglish close in January.

Posted: 11/30/11 at 10:58pmIf it's between the Cort or Longacre, I'd pick the Longacre.

Posted: 11/30/11 at 11:39pmI'm pretty sure both the Cort and Longacre are booked for the spring already.
