The limited engagement, originally scheduled through August 14th and extended one week through August 21st, will have played 23 previews and 78 regular performances.  The final performance will benefit the Actors' Fund of America.  Previews began on Friday, May 27th and the show officially opened on June 16th.

 Directed by Mark Brokaw, the show stars Kate Burton as Constance Middleton, Lynn Redgrave as Mrs. Culver, Kathryn Meisle as Marie-Louise, Michael Cumpsty as John Middleton, John Dossett as Bernard Kersal and Enid Graham as Martha.

The Constant Wife is a social comedy of marital maneuvers in 1920s upper-class London. Constance Middleton discovers that her husband is having an affair with her best friend. Rather than humiliating herself and others, she denies the affair, defends the two, and sets about turning bad luck, unfaithful friends, local gossip and a broken heart to her own advantage. The design team for The Constant Wife is made up of Alan Moyer (sets), Michael Krass (costumes), Mary Louise Geiger (lights) and David Van Tieghem (sound and original compositions).

The Constant Wife plays Tuesday through Saturday evenings at 8:00PM with a Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday matinee at 2:00PM. Tickets, which range from $46.25 - $86.25, are available by calling Roundabout Ticket Services at (212) 719-1300, visiting online at www.roundabouttheatre.org, or at the box office of the American Airlines Theatre.
