Lincoln
Center Theater's Platform Series, a forum for public discussion between
Lincoln Center Theater artists and interested theatergoers, will end
its 2005-2006 season on Wednesday, June 28, at 6:30 pm with a
pre-performance talk with the Tony Award-winning playwright, Richard
Greenberg, whose play The House in Town opens at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater on Monday, June 19.
"Set in the early months of
1929 in a townhouse on Millionaire's Row (23rd Street between 9th and
10th Avenues) in New York, The House in Town is an intimate portrait of
a marriage," state press notes. The cast of this world premiere production features Becky
Ann Baker, Dan Bittner, Mark Harelik, Jessica Hecht and Armand Schultz,
with Matt Dickson and Barbara McCulloh. Playwright Richard Greenberg returns to Lincoln Center Theater where his play Everett Beekin
was produced, also in the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater. Through June 18,
he is represented on Broadway with the new production of his play Three Days of Rain, winner
of the Los Angeles Drama Critics, Olivier and Drama Desk Awards. He won
the Tony, NY Drama Critics, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, Lucille
Lortel and Drama League Awards for Best Play for Take Me Out. His other plays include A
Naked Girl on the Appian Way, Night and Her Stars, The Extra Man, The
American Plan, The Author's Voice, The Maderati, Life Under Water, Safe
as Houses and Hurrah at Last.
