Laurie Metcalf and Tatiana Maslany are set to star in Grey House on Broadway.
Producers Tom Kirdahy and Robert Ahrens announced the cast and opening for the play’s New York premiere on Tuesday. Metcalf and Maslany will be joined by Paul Sparks, Sophia Anne Caruso and Millicent Simmonds in the Levi Holloway-written and Joe Mantello-directed production. Preview performances will begin April 29, with the show’s official opening set for May 30 at the Lyceum Theatre.
“The moment we encountered Levi Holloway’s Grey House, we knew we had to produce this exciting, sophisticated and terrifying new play,” the producers said in a statement. “We are thrilled to bring the horror genre to Broadway, helmed by one of the greatest directors of our time, Joe Mantello. Grey House will be unlike anything Broadway audiences have ever experienced, brought to life by extraordinary actors — Laurie Metcalf, Tatiana Maslany and Paul Sparks — and a team of brilliant designers.”
