Clayburgh, Linklater, Etc. to Star in LATW 'Busy World'

The original stars of The Busy World is Hushed will reprise their Off-Broadway roles at L.A. Theatre Works from February 7th through 11th at The Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles (2701 North Sepulveda Blvd.).

The show will star Jill Clayburgh (The Clean House, Barefoot in the Park, films such as An Unmarried Woman), Hamish Linklater (Recent Tragic Events, "The New Adventures of Old Christine") and Luke McFarlane (Where Do We Live).  A recording of the production will also be presented as part of the company's "The Play's the Thing" radio series at a future date.

"With wisdom, humor and insight, The Busy World is Hushed examines the contradictions we find in our faith, our families and ourselves. Hannah, a widowed Episcopal minister, is hoping to translate a long-lost gospel when she is challenged by both her scholarly assistant and her wayward gay son. But when family secrets are revealed, only the intercession of a stranger can help Hannah find peace," as LATW notes describe the show, which is by the author of The Credeaux Canvas.
