The world premiere of Taylor Mac's Gary: A Sequel to Titus Andronicus officially opens at the Booth Theatre on Broadway April 21. In the new comedy from the Pulitzer Prize finalist, which takes place just after the conclusion of William Shakespeare’s first tragedy, a pair of lowly servants is charged with cleaning up the bodies from years of bloody battles.
Tony Award winner George C. Wolfe directs a cast made up of Tony winner Nathan Lane as Gary, Tony nominee Kristine Nielsen as Janice, and Tony winner Julie White as Carol.
Gary, which is produced by Scott Rudin, began previews March 11.
