Just announced is word that Dead Accounts, led by Norbert Leo Butz and Katie Holmes will play its final performance on Sunday, January 6. When it plays its final performance, Dead Accounts will have played 27 preview performances and 44 regular performances.

Producer Jeffrey Finn said, "I am extremely proud of this production and the cast. Theresa Rebeck and Jack O'Brien have created an inspiring and hilarious new play and we are all sad to see Dead Accounts end on Broadway. I look forward to working with this remarkably talented cast and creative team again very soon."

DEAD ACCOUNTS began previews on Monday, November 5 and opened Thursday, November 29 at the Music Box Theatre. The play is by Pulitzer Prize finalist Theresa Rebeck and directed by two-time Tony Award winner Jack O'Brien. Dead Accounts stars two-time Tony Award winner Norbert Leo Butz and Katie Holmes. The production also stars Judy Greer, Josh Hamilton, and two-time Tony Award nominee Jayne Houdyshell.

In Dead Accounts, Jack's (Butz) unexpected return throws his family into a frenzy, and his sister Lorna (Holmes) needs answers. Is he coming home or running away? Where is his wife (Greer) everyone hates? And how did he get all that money? Theresa Rebeck's new comedy tackles the timely issues of corporate greed, small town values, and whether or not your family will always welcome you back...with no questions asked.

The creative team for the production features five-time Tony nominee David Rockwell (scenic design), five-time Tony winner Catherine Zuber (costume design), David Weiner (lighting design), Mark Bennett (sound design, original music), and Tom Watson (hair design).

DEAD ACCOUNTS is produced by Jeffrey Finn, John N. Hart Jr., David Mirvish, Amy Nauiokas, Ergo Entertainment, Harriet Newman Leve, Double Gemini Productions, 3toGo Entertainment, and The Shubert Organization.
