Roundabout Theatre Company is reviving the Depression-set 1963 drama, directed by Maria Aitken (The 39 Steps), in which Langella plays financier Gregor Antonescu, whose business "is dangerously close to crumbling," according to Roundabout notes. "In order to escape the wolves at his door, Gregor tracks down his estranged son Basil [played by Adam Driver, late of Roundabout's Mrs. Warren's Profession] in the hopes of using his Greenwich Village apartment as a base to make a company-saving deal. Can this reunion help them reconcile? Or will this corrupt father use his only son as a pawn in one last power play? Man and Boy is a gripping story about family, success and what we're willing to sacrifice for both."

Opening night is Oct. 9. The production, part of the centennial celebration of English playwright Rattigan, continues its limited run through Nov. 27.

Langella and Driver are joined by Francesca Faridany as Countess Antonescu, Zach Grenier as Mark Herries, Brian Hutchison as David Beeston, Virginia Kull as Carol Penn and Michael Siberry as Sven Johnson.

Langella told Playbill magazine, in a September issue feature, "It's a fascinating play — and very modern, even if it is set in 1934. Rattigan was referencing Ivar Kreuger, a European Ponzi-scheme artist who killed himself, and that dictated the period, but the obvious ties to Madoff and his son's suicide are there. Fifty years after it was written, people have no problem buying it. Just look at the headlines. There's very little now in human interaction that shocks us — from the murder cases with young children to the homosexual secrets of our politicians."

The creative team includes Derek McLane (sets), Martin Pakledinaz (costumes), Kevin Adams (lights) and John Gromada (original music and sound design). Langella's memoir "Dropped Names" will be released by HarperCollins in 2012. He was nominated for an Academy Award for his performance as Richard Nixon in Ron Howard's film "Frost/Nixon" and has subsequently appeared in Oliver Stone's "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps," "All Good Things" and "The Box." Langella returns to Broadway and Roundabout Theatre Company following his 2008 performance as Sir Thomas More in A Man for All Seasons. Previous Roundabout credits also include The Father (1996) and Cyrano De Bergerac (1997).

Driver appeared in Roundabout's Mrs. Warren's Profession last fall; Grenier was featured in Roundabout's A Man for All Seasons, also with Frank Langella; and Michael Siberry was in Roundabout's recent production of Death Takes a Holiday.

Show times are Tuesday-Saturday at 8 PM with matinees Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday at 2 PM.
