Kathryn Hahn joins the previously announced Christine Baranski, Mark Rylance, Bradley Whitford, Gina Gershon and Mary McCormack in the Broadway production of the London smash Boeing-Boeing, Marc Camoletti's classic sixties comedy of errors opening at the Longacre Theatre Sunday, May 4. Directed by Matthew Warchus, the show begins preview performances Saturday, April 19.

Kathryn Hahn, who will play the flight attendant Gloria, is best known for her role on the NBC drama "Crossing Jordan." She has also appeared in the films How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton and the upcoming Revolutionary Road.

This production of Boeing-Boeing was hailed as wholly reinventing the play when it opened to ecstatic reviews at London's Comedy Theatre in February 2007. The London production of Boeing-Boeing received Olivier Award nominations for Best Revival and Best Actor in a Play (Mark Rylance) and an Evening Standard Award nomination for Rylance.

"In Boeing-Boeing, an architect living in Paris (Whitford) has been successfully juggling three flight attendant fiancées (Gershon, Hahn and McCormack) with his housekeeper (Baranski) reluctantly playing romantic air-traffic controller as they fly in and out of his swank bachelor pad. But when an old school pal (Rylance) visits, things get rather turbulent. Schedules change, flights are delayed and chaos ensues in this whirl of mayhem and matchmaking," describe press notes.

Boeing-Boeing features a design by Rob Howell, lighting by Hugh Vanstone, original music by Claire Van Kampen, sound by Simon Baker, curtain call by Bruno Tonioli ("Dancing with the Stars," "Dance Wars: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann"), translation by Beverley Cross and Francis Evans and is produced by Sonia Friedman Productions/Bob Boyett, Act Productions/Matthew Byam Shaw, Robert G. Bartner, The Weinstein Company and The Araca Group.
