Campbell, Johnston, Murphy, Etc. Set for London 'Love Song'

Neve Campbell, Michael McKean, Kristen Johnston, and Cillian Murphy will star in the European premiere of John Kolvenbach's new play Love Song.

Previews begin at the New Ambassadors Theatre on November 25th. The show is booking through March 3rd, 2007.

"Beane (Murphy) is an exile from life – an oddball. His well-meaning sister Joan (Johnston) and brother-in-law Harry (McKean) try and make time for him in their busy lives, but no one can get through.  Following a burglary on his apartment, Joan is baffled to find her brother blissfully happy and tries to unravel the story behind Beane's mysterious new love Molly (Campbell). Funny, theatrically playful, and moving, John Kolvenbach's new romantic comedy explores the infectious effects of love and the redemptive power of hope," state notes.
