Seldes was last seen in the Primary Stages production of Terrence McNally's Dedication or The Stuff of Dreams.

Leight's new play No Foreigners Beyond This Point is currently being presented by the Ma-Yi Theatre Company at The Culture Project. He won the 1999 Tony Award for Best Play for Sideman, which was also nominated for a Pulitzer Prize for Drama that year. Other credits include James and Annie, Glimmer, Glimmer and Shine and the Broadway musical Mayor, for which he wrote the libretto. A co-executive producer of "Law and Order: Criminal Intent," he has also contributed screenplays to The Night We Never Met and Me and Him.
