Yasmina Reza's A Spanish Play, in its English language premiere, opened on February 1st after beginning previews on January 10th. The show is set to play an extended run through March 4th.
Directed by John Turturro (films such as The Big Lebowski, The Resistable Rise of Arturo Ui for CSC), the English language premiere of A Spanish Play, by Yazmina Reza (Art), the play stars four-time Tony Award-winner Zoe Caldwell (Master Class, Medea), Tony Award-winner Denis O'Hare (Sweet Charity, Assassins) and Linda Emond (Homebody/Kabul), as well as Larry Pine (Bus Stop, Angels in America) and Katherine Borowitz ("Law & Order," films such as Illuminata).
"Reza's play follows in the venerable tradition of Corneille, Shakespeare and Pirandello, playing with the question of truth and illusion as an audience is asked to disentangle real life from the rehearsal of a play," state notes on the play, which was translated by David Ives.
