How long will the revival of "The Royal Family" play at the Samuel J. Freidman Theatre since "Time Stands Still" begins performances there in January?

Royal Family closes at the Friedman on December 13th.
I'm actually really really excited for the production. It also reminds me that I badly want someone to produce William Finn's musical version!

Posted: 8/10/09 at 6:57pmAnyone else remember the '76 revival? It was wonderful, with Rosemary Harris playing Julie and Eva LeGallienne playing Fanny. Hoping all the best for this one!

Directed by the flawless Ellis Rabb!
I saw it at the McCarter Theater in Princeton with George Grizzard playing the john Barrymore part, and then again on Broadway with Ellis Rabb himself. Those mink coats! Those Afghan hounds!
Rosemary Harris's twinkling eyes were a revelation, and seeing Eva La Gallienne's death scene felt like watching a piece of theater history.
