The Old Globe's world premiere of Anna Ziegler's THE LAST MATCH, directed by Gaye Taylor, stars real-life fiancés Patrick J. Adams (Tim; SAG Award-nominated star of TV's "Suits," Garland Award for Bill Cain's play Nine Circles) and Troian Bellisario (Mallory; star of TV's "Pretty Little Liars," Equivocation and Farragut North at Geffen Playhouse). The show will run in the Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, part of the Globe's Conrad Prebys Theatre Center, now through March 13, 2016. THE LAST MATCH opens tonight, February 18, and BroadwayWorld has a first look at the stars onstage below!
Developed in the Globe's 2014 New Voices Festival, this funny and visceral look at the sacrifices we make to stay on top also stars Alex Mickiewicz (Sergei; Broadway's Thérèse Raquin) and Natalia Payne (Galina; New York premieres of Anna Ziegler's Novel, Edward Albee's Me, Myself & I,David Ives's New Jerusalem).
The creative team includes Tim Mackabee (Scenic Design), Denitsa Bliznakova (Costume Design), Bradley King(Lighting Design), Bray Poor (Sound Design), David Huber (Vocal Coach), Caparelliotis Casting/Lauren Port, CSA (Casting), and Diana Moser (Production Stage Manager).
The US Open tennis semifinals are underway. As Russian phenom Sergei Sergeyev and American superstar Tim Porter do battle under the lights on center court, Galina and Mallory, the funny and complicated women who share their lives, watch anxiously from the sidelines. But as the back-and-forth action unfolds, we journey into the minds of the players and the lives of the two couples in a fast-paced and moving exploration of family, parenthood, and the legacy we leave behind. Before it's game, set, and match, more than a championship will be won or lost.
