From Broadway.com:
"Lanford Wilson's Talley's Folly, which was expected to star Cynthia Nixon, will no longer be part of Manhattan Theatre Club's 2005-2006 season. The production was canceled because of casting issues, according to a production spokesperson.
An MTC spokesperson told Broadway.com that Talley's Folly is still a possibility for a future season. A replacement for the open slot at the Biltmore Theatre will be announced shortly."
It's a shame. I was really looking forward to seeing Nixon on stage again.

"The production was canceled because of casting issues"
I bet they couldn't get Nixon to agree to any of their choices. Plenty of excellent talent out there. What were the casting issues?
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Posted: 6/8/05 at 3:49pmGiven that it's a two-character play, I guess they couldn't find a sufficient leading man (I can't imagine how, though).
