The performance of Equivocation on Tuesday February 9 has been cancelled in order to allow for an additional day of technical rehearsal. Previews will now begin on Wednesday, February 10. EQUIVOCATION's opening night remains Tuesday, March 2 at MTC at New York City Center - Stage I (131 West 55th Street).
EQUIVOCATION is directed by Tony Award winner Garry Hynes (Translations, Beauty Queen of Leenane).
The cast features Remy Auberjonois (The Country Girl, Frost/Nixon), Michael Countryman (Mary Stuart, MTC's House and Garden), David Furr (MTC's Accent on Youth, Cymbeline), John Pankow (Twelve Angry Men, "Mad About You"), Charlotte Parry (Coram Boy, The Real Thing), and David Pittu (What's That Smell?, Tony nominee for MTC's LoveMusik).
Bill Cain's new play set in 1605 England begins when King James' right hand man (David Pittu) commissions William Shakespeare (John Pankow) to write a new play about the Gunpowder Plot, a
recent failed attempt to blow up Parliament and the Monarchy. EQUIVOCATION is a bold new look at the greatest playwright ever in a drama whose contemporary parallels are unmistakable and whose laughter is abundant - a work of startling revelations and vibrant theatricality.
The production will feature scenic & costume design by Francis O'Connor, lighting design by David Weiner, sound design David Van Tieghem & Brandon Wolcott, and fight direction by David Brimmer.
