The cast features Homeland star and Golden Globe nominee Claire Danes, Tony nominee Hank Azaria (Spamalot), Sanjit De Silva (War Horse) and Emmy nominee John Krasinski (The Office)
Burgess' new play, which will officially open at The Public Theater March 22, explores the price of success and the people shaping the American economy.
"The same week his private equity firm forced massive layoffs at a national grocery chain, Rick (Azaria) threw himself an extravagant engagement party, setting off a publicity nightmare," state production notes. "Fortunately, Seth (Krasinski), one of Rick’s partners, has a win-win deal to invest in an American-made luggage company for a song and rescue his boss from a PR disaster. But Jenny (Danes), Seth’s counterpart, has an entirely different plan: to squeeze every last penny out of the company, no matter the consequences."
Tickets are available by calling (212) 967-7555, online at PublicTheater.org, or in person at the Taub Box Office at The Public Theater at 425 Lafayette St., Manhattan.
