Photo Flash: Meet the Cast of the World-Premiere of THE ORIGINALIST at the Arena Stage!

Four-time Helen Hayes Award winner and acclaimed D.C. actor Edward Gero stars as one of America's most brilliant and polarizing figures-Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia-in the world-premiere political drama The Originalist, by Charles MacArthur Award winner and Arena Stage resident playwright John Strand. When a bright, liberal law school graduate embarks on a nerve-wracking clerkship with Justice Scalia, she discovers him to be both an infuriating sparring partner and unexpected mentor. How will their relationship affect one of the most incendiary cases ever to reach the nation's highest court? Artistic Director Molly Smith directs this daring new play, which offers a rare portrayal of a sitting Supreme Court justice, and for the first time the intimate Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle will be configured into a three-quarter thrust configuration.

Joining Gero, who returns to Arena Stage following his portrayal of legendary artist Mark Rothko in Red in 2012, are Kerry Warren (Broadway's The River) as Cat, the young clerk who becomes a sparring partner for Justice Scalia, and Harlan Work (Taffety Punk's Charm) as Brad, an eager Scalia devotee and Cat's opposite in every way.

The Originialist runs March 6-April 26 in the Arlene and Robert Kogod Cradle at the Arena Stage.
