Manhattan Theatre Club's hit production of THE ROYAL FAMILY, written by theatre legends George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber and directed by Tony Award winner Doug Hughes, will be featured on this weekend's episode of "Theater Talk."

The episode, which premieres 1 AM late Friday night, November 13 on Channel 13, will feature THE ROYAL FAMILY cast members John Glover and Tony Roberts. The episode will also include playwright Paul Rudnick, New York Times theatre critic Charles Isherwood, and hosts Susan Haskins and Michael Riedel offering an appreciation of THE ROYAL FAMILY co-writer George S. Kaufman.

The episode will subsequently air on CUNY-TV (Ch. 75 on Time Warner Cable), Saturday, November 14 at 8:30 PM; Sunday, November 15 at 12:30 PM; and Monday, November 16 at 7:30 AM, 1:30 PM, and 7:30 PM.

Tickets for the acclaimed production of THE ROYAL FAMILY are on sale through Sunday, December 13 at MTC's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre (261 West 47th Street) where the production has been extended twice.

In addition to Glover and Roberts, the cast of THE ROYAL FAMILY features "Saturday Night Live" alum Ana Gasteyer (Kitty Dean), Tony Award winner and Oscar nominee Rosemary Harris (Fanny Cavendish), Tony Award nominee and Drama Desk Award winner Jan Maxwell (Julie Cavendish), Broadway veteran Larry Pine (Gilbert Marshall), and Tony Award nominee and Drama Desk Award nominee Reg Rogers (Tony Cavendish).

Follow a famous family of stage stars as they go about the drama of the day: choosing scripts, dashing off to performances, stealing kisses from handsome beaus. But what's this business about the youngest diva wanting to quit the stage for domestic bliss? Never, darling!
