IT'S ONLY A PLAY's Rupert Grint appeared on Access Hollywood to talk about his Broadway debut as 'Frank Finger' in the upcoming revival of Tony winner Terrence McNally's backstage comedy. Watch the interview below!
The star-studded Broadway production of IT'S ONLY A PLAY is now in previews at Broadway's Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre (236 West 45th Street) will open on Thursday, October 9, 2014. Grint stars alongside Academy Award winner F. Murray Abraham, Tony Award winner Matthew Broderick, Emmy and Tony Award winner Stockard Channing, Tony Award winner Nathan Lane, Emmy Award winner Megan Mullally, and newcomer Micah Stock. Tony Award winner Jack O'Brien directs.
In IT'S ONLY A PLAY, it's opening night of Peter Austin's (Matthew Broderick) new play as he anxiously awaits to see if his show is a hit. With his career on the line, he shares his big First Night with his best friend, a television star (Nathan Lane), his fledgling producer (Megan Mullally), his erratic leading lady (Stockard Channing), his wunderkind director (Rupert Grint), an infamous drama critic (F. Murray Abraham), and a fresh-off-the-bus coat check attendant (Micah Stock) on his first night in Manhattan. It's alternately raucous, ridiculous and tender - and proves that sometimes the biggest laughs happen offstage.
The design team for IT'S ONLY A PLAY includes scenic design by Tony winner Scott Pask, costume design by Academy Award and Tony winner Ann Roth, lighting design by Philip Rosenberg, and sound design by Fitz Patton.
Grint also appeared onstage in London in 2013's Mojo. He will next be seen on the big screen in Moonwalkers; his past film credits include CBGB, Charlie Countryman, Into the White, Driving Lessons and, of course, the Harry Potter series.
