Playbill will continue to add reviews as they come in.
In Three Kings, Scott played Patrick. At eight years old, his absent father returns unexpectedly and in a brief but memorable encounter, sets him the challenge of "The Three Kings." Years later, Patrick traces the events of his father’s life and takes us on a journey of grandiose plans, aching disappointments, and audacious self-delusion.
Also serving on the creative team for the production was associate director Katy Rudd.
