Performances begin September 27 for the Roundabout Theatre Company production of Alexi Kaye Campbell’s Apologia. Reprising her starring role from the acclaimed London run is Tony and Emmy Award winner Stockard Channing (A Day in the Death of Joe Egg, It's Only a Play).
In Apologia, a woman faces the repercussions of her past. In the 1960s, she was a radical activist and political protester. Now a celebrated art historian, the publication of her memoir threatens to split her family apart.
Daniel Aukin directs a cast completed by Hugh Dancy (Hannibal, Journey's End) as Peter and Simon, Megalyn Echikunwoke (Night School, Step Sisters) as Claire, Talene Monahon (Log Cabin, Bobbie Clearly) as Trudi, and actor and director John Tillinger (Joe Egg at Roundabout, The Changing Room) as Hugh.
Performances of Apologia are in the Laura Pels Theater in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre. The production will officially open October 16 and is schedule to run through December 16.
The creative team is made up of Dane Laffrey (scenic design), Anita Yavich (costume design), Bradley King (lighting design), Ryan Rumery (original compositions and sound design), and Ben Furey (dialect coach).
The West End production of Apologia was directed by Jamie Lloyd at Trafalgar Studios last fall.
Tickets for Apologia are available by calling (212) 719-1300, online at RoundaboutTheatre.org, or in person at any Roundabout box office.
