Four-time Academy Award-nominee Julianne Moore will make her Broadway debut in The Vertical Hour, the first play by David Hare (Stuff Happens, Plenty) to premiere on Broadway.  Directed by Oscar-winner Sam Mendes (Gypsy, Cabaret), it will begin previews at the Music Box Theatre on November 9th for a November 30th opening.

"Nadia Blye (Moore) is a young American war correspondent turned academic who now teaches Political Studies at Yale. A brief holiday with her boyfriend in the Welsh borders brings her into contact with a kind of Englishman whose culture and beliefs are a surprise and a challenge, both to her and to her relationship.  David Hare's new play, about the interconnection between our secret motives and our public politics, seeks to illustrate how life has subtly changed for so many people in the West in the new century." 

Moore has received Oscar nominations for her work in Far from Heaven, The Hours, The End of the Affair and Boogie Nights.
