Eric Bogosian (Talk Radio, "Law & Order: CI"), Tony Award nominee
Brian d'Arcy James (Shrek, Off-Broadway's Next to Normal), Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner
Laura Linney ("John Adams," Sight Unseen on Broadway), and Golden Globe Award nominee

Sarah and James, a photographer and a journalist (
Laura Linney and
Brian d'Arcy James), have been together for nine years and share a passion for documenting the realities of war. But when injuries force them to return home to New York and their circle of friends (
Eric Bogosian and
Alicia Silverstone), the adventurous couple confronts the prospect of a more conventional life. This timely and intelligent play marks the fourth collaboration for Pulitzer Prize winner
Donald Margulies and Tony Award-winning director
Daniel Sullivan.
