Photo Flash: Bobby Steggert & More in Westport Country Playhouse's HARBOR World Premiere!

Westport Country Playhouse stages the world premiere of a new comedy, "Harbor," written by two-time Tony Award nominee Chad Beguelin and directed by Playhouse artistic director Mark Lamos, now through September 15. The cast includes Tony Award nominee Bobby Steggert (Broadway's "Ragtime"), Emmy Award nominee Paul Anthony Stewart ("Guiding Light"), Kate Nowlin and Alexis Molnar. Get a first look at the cast onstage in the photos below!

"Harbor" opens with Ted and Kevin, who have been together for 10 years, in their picture perfect house in Sag Harbor. When Kevin's ne'er-do-well sister Donna, whom he hasn't seen in years, and her 15-year-old daughter arrive out of the blue, the pair's idyllic life changes and tensions quickly bubble to the surface. The bonds between kith and kin are tested in this alternately biting, touching and hilarious new comedy about the constantly shifting nature of the meaning of family.

Bobby Steggert (Kevin) appeared on Broadway in "Ragtime" (Tony, Drama Desk, Drama League award nominations), "110 in the Shade" (Outer Critics Circle Award nomination), and "Master Harold…and the Boys." Off-Broadway, he was in "The Grand Manner," directed by Mark Lamos; "Yank!" (Drama Desk, Drama League award nominations); and "The Slug Bearers of Kayrol Island" (Drama Desk, Drama League award nominations). Upcoming work includes "Giant" at The Public Theater. On television he played a year as Sam Grey on "All My Children."

Paul Anthony Stewart (Ted) appeared last season at Westport Country Playhouse in "Twelfth Night." On Broadway, he was in "The People in the Picture," "Fiddler on the Roof," and "Cyrano." Regional theater credits include "The Last Five Years" (Berkshire Theatre Festival), "Funny Girl" (Drury Lane, Chicago), "Hello Again" (LA premiere), "Pera Palas" (Long Wharf Theatre), and "Children of Eden" (American premiere). On television he played Danny Santos on "Guiding Light," for which he received an Emmy Award nomination.

Kate Nowlin will portray Donna. On the New York stage she appeared at the Atlantic Theatre and Second Stage, among other venues. Regionally, her theater credits includes "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at Shakespeare Theatre Washington, D.C., for which she received a Helen Hayes Award nomination, and "Anthony and Cleopatra" at Guthrie Theater, both directed by Mark Lamos. Her film credits include "The Adjustment Bureau"; on television she appeared in "Pan Am" and "The Black Donnellys."

Alexis Molar (Lottie) performed with RADA, Joe's Pub, Le Poisson Rouge, and The GBS Players. On television, she appeared in "The Next Big Thing" (Oxygen), "Electric Company" (PBS), and "Danger Dawgz" (MTV). A high school senior, she trained with RADA London and Second City Chicago.

Playwright Chad Beguelin is a two-time Tony Award nominee for his work on the Broadway musical "The Wedding Singer" (Tony Award nomination for Best Book and Best Original Score, Drama Desk Award nomination for Outstanding Lyrics). He wrote the lyrics for the Broadway musical "Elf," which broke several box office records at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre.
