Mary Louise Parker Featured In New MCC Ad

Versatile stage and screen star Mary-Louise Parker returns to the theatre this season in the new drama THE SNOW GEESE, written by Sharr White and directed by Daniel Sullivan, and an ad boasting the popular headliner's appearance leads MCC's new subscription campaign.

Featuring the moody, inviting gaze she is so famous for, Parker peers forth in the monochrome shot, while the accompanying witty ad copy reads as such: "MLP. MCC. MTC. On Broadway."

Of Course, MLP is Mary-Louise Parker, MCC is the MCC Theatre and MTC is the Manhattan Theatre Club, co-producers for the Broadway bow of the new play, which is set to premiere this October at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre on Broadway.

The official synopsis for THE SNOW GEESE is as follows: "The Snow Geese begins with World War I raging abroad. Newly widowed Elizabeth Gaesling (Mary-Louise Parker) gathers her family for their annual shooting party to mark the opening of hunting season in rural, upstate New York. But Elizabeth is forced to confront a new reality as her carefree eldest son comes to terms with his impending deployment overseas and her younger son discovers that the father they all revered left them deeply in debt. Together, the family must let go of the life they've always known. Tony winner Daniel Sullivan (Rabbit Hole, Proof) directs this stirring new play about a family waking up from their own personal Gilded Age as the world around them changes forever."

Recently, Parker expressed her desire to retire from acting following a few more theatre roles and also commented on juggling motherhood with an acting career, available here.
