The Manhattan Theatre Club Broadway premiere of COLLECTED STORIES, by Pulitzer Prize winner Donald Margulies (Time Stands Still, Dinner with Friends), directed by Lynne Meadow (The Tale of the Allergist's Wife, The Loman Family Picnic) began previews on Friday, April 9 and is gearing up for their opening night on Wednesday, April 28 at MTC's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre. BroadwayWorld brings you the first production photos.
COLLECTED STORIES stars Tony Award winner Linda Lavin (The Tale of the Allergist's Wife, The New Century) and Golden Globe nominee Sarah Paulson (Still Life, Killer Joe, "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip").
This acclaimed drama chronicles the relationship between two female writers - a celebrated New York author (Lavin) and her young protégé (Paulson). As their fascinating story evolves, and the line between fact and fiction blurs, the twists and turns of this complex relationship weave a play that's as smart and witty as it is powerful.
Lavin and Meadow reunite for this Broadway premiere after working together on MTC's hit production of The Tale of the Allergist's Wife.
The design team for COLLECTED STORIES includes Santo Loquasto (Scenic Design), Jane Greenwood (Costume Design), Natasha Katz (Lighting Design), and Obadiah Eaves (Sound Design).
