CHURCHILL, a new play adapted and performed by Ronald Keaton, opened at New World Stages last night following an acclaimed 2014 sold-out world premiere engagement in Chicago. Under the direction of Kurt Johns, CHURCHILL is based on the life and writings of one of the greatest wartime leaders of the 20th Century. Broadway's favorite sisters, Jessie and Abby Mueller, recently attended Off-Broadway's newest smash and happily posed for photos with star Ronald Keaton after the show. Scroll down for a photo!

Jessie Mueller received the 2014 Tony Award for her starring role in Beautiful The Carole King Musical, and Abby Mueller is currently appearing in Broadway's Kinky Boots.

In this highly charged new play, Winston Churchill discusses his failures and his successes; his love of art, liquor and women; and the bravery of Britain's finest hour.

Over the past four decades, Ronald Keaton has established himself as one of Chicago's most dependable and versatile character actors at the Goodman, Chicago Shakespeare Theatre, Drury Lane Oakbrook Terrace, First Folio Theatre, Theater at the Center, Oak Park Festival Theatre, Porchlight Music Theatre, and Mercury Theatre, among many others. His regional credits include roles at the Indiana Repertory Theatre, Houston's Alley Theatre and the Coconut Grove Playhouse in Miami.

CHURCHILL is a joint production of the Greenhouse Theater Center, SoloChicago, and the Wendy & William Spatz Charitable Foundation, with the support and permission of The Churchill Centre.

Performances are Mondays at 7pm, Wednesday through Saturday evenings at 8pm, with matinees Thursday and Saturday at 2:30pm and Sunday at 3pm at New World Stages, 340 West 50th Street. Tickets are $65 and are available at www.Telecharge.com or by calling 212-239-6200. For more information, visit www.ChurchillThePlay.com.
