THE ICEMAN COMETH with Denzel Washington Postpones First Preview Performance

The first preview performance for Eugene O'Neill's The Iceman Cometh starring Tony and Oscar-winner Denzel Washington has been postponed by a day and will now take place on Friday, March 23rd at 7 PM. The production's opening night is currently set for April 26, 2018.

"Due to inclement weather which prevented set pieces from reaching the Bernard Jacobs Theatre on time, the first preview of Eugene O'Neill's The Iceman Cometh on Broadway - scheduled for Thursday, March 22 - has been postponed..." the production announced late Wednesday evening.

George C. Wolfe will direct the Scott Rudin produced revival. The production is a limited 14 week engagement.

The Iceman Cometh focuses on a group of alcoholics and misfits who endlessly discuss but never act on their dreams, and Hickey, the traveling salesman determined to strip them of their pipe dreams.

Denzel Washington has been a household name since he first became known as a heartthrob doctor on the NBC television medical drama ST. ELSEWHERE (1982-1988). Film success followed with work in such diverse films as PHILADELPHIA, MAN ON FIRE, THE GREAT DEBATERS, GANGSTER, and FLIGHT.
