Three-time Tony Award® winner Frank Langella returns to Broadway in Roundabout Theatre Company's exciting new production of Terence Rattigan's masterpiece MAN AND BOY, directed by Maria Aitken (The 39 Steps). At the height of the Great Depression, ruthless financier Gregor Antonescu's business is dangerously close to crumbling. In order to escape the wolves at his door, Gregor tracks down his estranged son Basil in the hopes of using his Greenwich Village apartment as a base to make a company-saving deal. Can this reunion help them reconcile? Or will this corrupt father use his only son as a pawn in one last power play? Don't miss this gripping story about family, success and what we're willing to sacrifice for both.

‘Man and Boy’ studies a scoundrel and his son

Sure, Roundabout Theatre Company's 'Man and Boy' revival may be dismissed as merely so much cheese and ham by some viewers, but I find it yummy. Anyone with a taste for old-fashioned Broadway theatrics richly furnished will enjoy the production that opened Sunday at American Airlines Theatre.
