Roundabout's McReele on Court TV's 'Hollywood Heat'
Court TV's "Hollywood Heat" will feature McREELE stars Anthony Mackie and Michael O'Keefe this weekend, Thursday, March 17th - Sunday, March 20th. Please check local listings for channel information.
Roundabout Theatre Company (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director) presents Anthony Mackie and Michael O'Keefe in the world premiere of Stephen Belber's play McREELE, staged by Tony Award© nominated director Doug Hughes. McREELE officially opened on February 24, 2005 at the Laura Pels Theatre (Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre; 111 West 46th Street). Limited engagement concludes Sunday, May 1.
From playwright Stephen Belber (Match, Tape, The Laramie Project) comes a provocative new drama that pits social responsibility against personal redemption. When Delaware journalist Rick Dayne (O'Keefe) meets death row inmate Darius McReele (Mackie), the articles Rick writes eventually lead to Darius's exoneration from a 16 year old murder conviction. Darius's sympathetic past and magnetic personality make him a darling of the lecture circuit, leading to national attention and political viability. With his past and future in the balance, Darius walks the line, as Rick seeks to determine which way he'll ultimately fall.
