Michael Stuhlbarg Will Perform at Tonight's First Preview of PATRIOTS

Michael Stuhlbarg will perform at tonight’s first preview performance of Patriots on Broadway at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre, as scheduled.

As BroadwayWorld previously reported, the actor was randomly attacked near Central Park last night. The entire Patriots company fully supports Mr. Stuhlbarg, who feels fine and is looking forward to performing on stage tonight.

Patriots, which won the 2023 Critics' Circle Award for Best New Play, comes to Broadway following a record-breaking run at London's Almeida Theatre where it was the fastest-selling new play in the theatre's history, and a sold out 12-week run in the West End at the Noël Coward Theatre, where it recouped its investment. 
 
In 1991, after the fall of the Soviet Union, the new Russia belongs to its oligarchs – and no one is more powerful than billionaire Boris Berezovsky. “If the politicians cannot save Russia,” he insists, “then we businessmen must.” When an eventual successor to President Boris Yeltsin is needed, Berezovsky turns to the little-known deputy mayor of St. Petersburg, Vladimir Putin. But soon Putin's ruthless rise threatens Berezovsky's reign, setting off a riveting, near-Shakespearean confrontation between the two powerful, fatally flawed men.
