David Wilson Barnes (Becky Shaw at Second Stage Theatre and London's Almeida Theatre) plays Charlie Duff, a burnt-out local newscaster who transforms first his community and then himself when he begins praying on-air in the Huntington Theatre Company's new production of Stephen Belber's moving new drama The Power of Duff. Amy Pietz ("The Office," "Caroline in the City") plays Duff's ex-wife Lisa, and Jennifer Westfeldt (Kissing Jessica Stein, Friends with Kids) plays Sue, Charlie's co-anchor, in the production helmed by Huntington Artistic Director Peter DuBois. The Power of Duff is produced in association with New York Stage and Film and Vassar's Powerhouse Theater plays through November 9, 2013. Check out a first look below!

The ensemble cast includes: David Wilson Barnes (Becky Shaw at Second Stage Theatre and London's Almeida Theatre) as Channel 10 news anchor Charles Duff; Ben Cole (One Slight Hitch at Williamstown Theatre Festival ) as news director Scott Zoellner; Noah Galvin (Burnt Part Boys at Playwrights Horizons) as Ricky, Charlie's estranged teenage son; Brendan Griffin (Clybourne Park on Broadway) as John Ebbs, the station's jovial sportscaster; Russell G. Jones (Obie Award winner for Ruined at Manhattan Theatre Club, The Power of Duff at New York Stage and Film and Vassar's Powerhouse Theater) as Joseph Andango, a man for whom Charlie prays; Joe Paulik (Twelfth Night at Hartford Stage) as field reporter Ron Kirkpatrick and others; Amy Pietz ("The Office," "Caroline in the City") as Charlie's ex-wife Lisa; and Jennifer Westfeldt (Kissing Jessica Stein, Friends with Kids, The Power of Duff at New York Stage and Film and Vassar's Powerhouse Theater) as news anchor Sue Raspell.
