Film and Television star Justin Long (He's Just Not That Into You, The Break Up, Live Free or Die Hard, Dodgeball, "Ed") will make his Broadway debut when he joins Academy Award and Emmy Award nominee Jeff Goldblum (The Pillowman, Jurassic Park, Independence Day, "Law & Order: Criminal Intent") beginning Tuesday, April 3 in the season's hit comedy SEMINAR by Pulitzer Prize finalist and Peabody Award winner Theresa Rebeck (Mauritius, Omnium Gatherum, "NYBD Blue," NBC's new hit series "Smash").

In SEMINAR, four aspiring young novelists (Lily Rabe, Hamish Linklater, Jerry O'Connell and Hettienne Park) sign up for private writing classes with Leonard (Mr. Rickman), an international literary figure. Under his recklessly brilliant and unorthodox instruction, some thrive and others flounder, alliances are made and broken, sex is used as a weapon and hearts are unmoored. The wordplay is not the only thing that turns vicious as innocence collides with experience in this provocative new comedy. In the video below, ALan Rickman stops by 'The View,' where he chatted with the ladies about the show, the 2012 Tony Awards, and more. Click below to watch his full interview!

UK's First Lady of Musical Theatre, Elaine Paige, graced Broadway for only the second time in her career as the fearless 'Carlotta Campion' in Follies. And, music icon Alicia Keyes fully initiated herself as the newest A-lister on the block.

Acclaimed playwright Theresa Rebeck and cast members from her new hit Broadway comedy SEMINAR will participate in a special in-store event at The Drama Book Shop (250 West 40th Street) on Wednesday afternoon, December 14 starting at 5PM. Ms. Rebeck will be joined by cast members Tony Award nominee Lily Rabe, Obie Award winner Hamish Linklater, film and television star Jerry O'Connell and actress Hettienne Park for a Q&A panel about the play.
