Robert Rossen News

From October 11th-16th, we will be presenting multiple performances of four different plays, both new and from our repertory, in festival style with weekly all-access tickets available as well as tickets to individual performances. The works we are presenting were developed with our late Founder and Artistic Director Alice Spivak and continued in her honor by the ensemble she built.​

Deadline.com, while reporting on an upcoming film project for Renee Zellwegger (her directorial debut, 4 1/2 minutes, oppposite Johnny Knoxville), also notes that 'She'll also star in the upcoming Broadway adaptation of The Hustler, written by Tambakis and to be directed by Warrior‘s Gavin O'Connor.'
