Photo Flash: Edward Albee's 'Peter and Jerry'

By: Nov. 02, 2007

Edward Albee's Peter and Jerry, starring Johanna Day, Bill Pullman and Dallas Roberts officially opens at Second Stage Theatre (307 West 43rd Street) on Sunday, November 11 at 6:30PM; directed by Pam MacKinnon.

Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize winner Edward Albee delves deeper into his seminal 1958 play The Zoo Story by adding a brand-new first act, Homelife, which leads to act two's The Zoo Story and Peter's infamous and fateful meeting with Jerry on a park bench in Central Park.

The 2007-08 theatre season – during which Edward Albee will turn 80 on March 12, 2008 – will feature four major productions of works by Albee, collectively entitled "The Albee Season."  In addition to Edward Albee's Peter and Jerry, the season will see Me, Myself and I at the McCarter Theatre, The Sandbox and The American Dream at Cherry Lane Theatre, and Occupant at Signature Theatre Company.  This season-long array of Albee plays – premieres, early works and a double-bill comprised of both a new work and his first play – serves as a reminder why Albee is widely-regarded as America's greatest living playwright, most notably on the occasion of his milestone birthday.

Tickets may be purchased by calling the Second Stage Theatre Box Office at 212-246-4422 or online at www.2ST.com.
