ENRON to Close on Broadway on Sunday May 9

ENRON began previews on Broadway on April 8, 2010 at The Broadhurst Theatre and opened on April 27, 2010. BroadwayWorld.com has just confirmed that the show will play its final performance on Sunday, May 9, 2010.

Directed by Rupert Goold, ENRON stars Norbert Leo Butz, Gregory Itzkin, Stephen Kunken, and Marin Mazzie, and features Noah Weisberg, Rightor Doyle, Ian Kahn, Mary Stewart Sullivan, Madisyn Shipman, January Lavoy, Jordan Ballard, Brandon J. Dirden, Anthony Holds, Ty Jones, Tom Nelis, Jeff Skowron, Lusia Strus, Ben Hartley, and Ellyn Marie Marsh.

The production features scenic and costume design by Anthony Ward, lighting by Mark Henderson, music and sound by Adam Cork, video and projection by Jon Driscoll and choreography by Scott Ambler.

Inspired by the real-life financial scandal of 2001, ENRON, which was commissioned by Headlong Theatre, premiered this past summer at the Minerva Theatre Chichester, and then moved for a six-week run at The Royal Court Theatre where it played through November 8, 2009. The play transferred to West End's Noel Coward Theatre in January 2010.

Headlong Theatre, Chichester Festival Theatre and Royal Court Theatre production of ENRON will be produced on Broadway by Jeffrey Richards, Jerry Frankel, Matthew Byam Shaw, Act Productions, Caro Newling for Neal St. Productions and The Shubert Organization.
