According to Variety, the Kristen Wiig starring 'Imogene' has two new additions to its cast: June Diane Raphael and Natasha Lyonne.

Lyonne has a varied background that includes film as well as theatre; in 2009, she appeared in Love, Loss, and What I Wore, followed by Tigers Be Still at the Roundabout Theatre Company.

In addition to Wiig, the pair joins Darren Criss - headed to Broadway in HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING this January - Annette Bening, and Tony Award nominee Christopher Fitzgerald.

According to the report, "The 'Bridesmaids' thesp stars as a playwright who stages a fake suicide attempt to win back her ex-boyfriend (Darren Criss, 'Glee'), only to end up being forced into the custody of her gambling-addict mother (Annette Bening). Lyonne will play Allyson, a Jersey Shore girl who works on the boardwalk and is the love interest of Christopher Fitzgerald's character."
