This special CNN presentation of the five-time Tony Award-nominated play by George Clooney and Grant Heslov marks a historic Broadway first: never before has a live play ever been broadcast and televised. CNN anchors Anderson Cooper and Pamela Brown will lead special live coverage.

In this landmark theatrical and live television event, two-time Academy Award® winner and Tony Award® nominated George Clooney makes his Broadway debut as Edward R. Murrow, showcasing his legendary, history-altering, on-air showdown with Senator Joseph McCarthy. As McCarthyism casts a shadow over America, Murrow and his news team choose to confront the growing tide of paranoia and propaganda, even if it means turning the federal government and a worried nation against them. Good Night, and Good Luck recently made history by becoming the highest-grossing play in Broadway history, and the first play to surpass a gross of $4 million in a single week.
