Broadway's new suspense thriller Misery, starring two-time Emmy Award winner and Golden Globe Award winnerBruce Willis and three-time Emmy Award winner Laurie Metcalf, is currently in previews at Broadway's Broadhurst Theatre (235 W 44th Street), and officially opens on Sunday, November 15, 2015, in a strictly limited 16-week engagement.

Written by two-time Academy Award winner William Goldman and directed by Will Frears, Miseryfollows successful romance novelist Paul Sheldon (Bruce Willis), who is rescued from a car crash by his "Number One Fan," Annie Wilkes (Laurie Metcalf), and wakes up captive in her secluded home. While Paul is convalescing, Annie reads the manuscript to his newest novel and becomes enraged when she discovers the author has killed off her favorite character, Misery Chastain. Annie forces Paul to write a new "Misery" novel, and he quickly realizes Annie has no intention of letting him go anywhere.
