Academy Award-nominated director Spike Lee will announce an upcoming theatrical project with producer Michael Abbott on Thursday, June 28 at the Palace Theatre, 1564 Broadway, between 46th and 47th Streets.

Project details will be presented at the press conference.

A two-time Oscar-nominee for his screenplay to Do the Right Thing and for his documentary 4 Little Girls, writer, director and producer Lee - who was originally in the running to helm the screen version of Rent - is one of the most acclaimed and distinctive voices in contemporary film.  His other film credits include She's Got to Have It, School Daze, Jungle Fever, Crooklyn, Get on the Bus, He Got Game, Summer of Sam, Bamboozled, 25th Hour, and Inside Man.  

The new project will mark Lee's first major venture in theatre.
