The 1953 Pulitzer Prize winner for Drama,
William Inge's
Picnic gets a fresh Broadway revival by Roundabout Theatre Company at the American Airlines Theatre. When sexy drifter Hal (
Sebastian Stan) arrives in a small Kansas town looking for work from his college pal Alan (
Ben Rappaport), he stirs up the locals — especially the women, including Flo (
Mare Winningham), her younger daughter Millie (
Madeleine Martin), comely older daughter Madge (
Maggie Grace), neighbor Mrs. Potts (
Ellen Burstyn) and schoolteacher Rosemary (Elizabeth Marvel) — on the day of the big summer picnic.
Sam Gold directs the steamy portrait of passion in a world of limited choices. View the Playbill Photo Call of
