The film and television star will be joined onstage by Paris Campbell, Michelle Wilson and James Murray Jackson, Jr. Additional cast to be announced shortly. Rod Gailes OBC directs.

According to Unspeakable press notes. "Sex, drugs and comedy. Unspeakable, is an unflinching ride through the emotional landscape of iconic comedic legend, Richard Pryor. Growing up in a Peoria brothel, where his mother toiled as a prostitute that his grandmother owned and operated, Richard faced situations that forever shaped and scarred his sensitive soul. Coping with the reality of being born into the life, his imagination allows him to escape and ultimately leads him to comedy. Experience his rise to superstardom in the shadow of Bill Cosby and his blazingly self-destructive love affair with cocaine....and Jennifer."

Reading held at Studio 3A at the New 42nd Street Studios.
