The upcoming Broadway bow of The Height of the Storm begins performances September 10 at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre ahead of September 24 opening night.

After starring in the London production, Olivier Award winners Eileen Atkins and Jonathan Pryce reprise their roles as Madeleine and André in Christopher Hampton’s translation of Florian Zeller’s drama about a long-married couple receiving a visit from their daughters during which things begin to unravel.

Joining the two Olivier winners will be Lucy Cohu as The Woman, Amanda Drew as Anne, and James Hillier as The Man—all of whom also reprise their performances from the play's London bow—in addition to Lisa O'Hare (Broadway's A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder) as Elise.
