It was in The Baltimore Sun today (of all places...). I hope I can get a chance to see it - sounds intriguing!

Sounds like an absolutely perfect role for Matthew.

I'm happy as long as there are brownies in the green room.

Wasn't he supposed to star in the film version of this which never ended up getting made?
Personally it sounds like type casting to me. All he seems to play now are nerds who blossom.
