In Lincoln Center Theater production of “The Mystery of Love and Sex." Having seen her incredible performance in "Sweet Bird of Youth" a few years ago in Chicago, I am very very excited about this!
Now that Finn Whitrock has been making a name for himself on American Horror Story I was hoping this would mean his and Diane's Sweet Bird would finally come to Broadway for a limited run. Oh well.

It was a transcendent production and the performances were all incredible (watching Finn shirtless throughout half the performance didn't hurt either...). Considering the raves it got in Chicago, I'm surprised it never transferred.
I would like to point out that this news was announced after I raised Ms. Lane's name in the "Actresses you want to see on Broadway/NY Theatre" thread. So. You're welcome.
When Sweet Bird was running I had the chance to do an online (brief)interview with Finn, for a soap opera website so mainly about his first big role on All My Children (quiet all of you...) A really nice guy--at least online--and he seemed to hope there was a chance that after a break, Sweet Bird would transfer and said how he wanted to focus on theatre for the time...
Anyway thanks Horse Tears for your hard work in getting Lane back on Broadway!
