Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane stopped by CBS's THE TALK, filming this week from New York City, to discuss their hit Broadway play, IT'S ONLY A PLAY. Later, Broderick discusses having been accused of "man spreading" on the subway in New York City. Nathan Lane also weighs in on the matter. Check out the clips below!

The biggest hit of the new season, It's Only A Play, is now in performances and CELEBRATED its opening night on Thursday, October 9, 2014. For more information, visit www.ItsOnlyAPlay.com.

In It's Only A Play, it's opening night of Peter Austin's (Matthew Broderick) new play as he anxiously awaits to see if his show is a hit. With his career on the line, he shares his big First Night with his best friend, a television star (Nathan Lane), his fledgling producer, his erratic leading lady, his wunderkind director , an infamous drama critic (F. Murray Abraham), and a fresh-off-the-bus coat check attendant (Micah Stock) on his first night in Manhattan. It's alternately raucous, ridiculous and tender - and proves that sometimes the biggest laughs happen offstage.

Mr. McNally-a four-time Tony Award winning playwright-recently CELEBRATED the premiere of his 20th Broadway production, Mothers and Sons, which marks his 50th year on Broadway. Mothers and Sons, which was nominated for Best Play at the 2014 Tony Awards, ended its CELEBRATED Broadway run June 22, 2014 at the Golden Theatre and will be seen in more than twenty countries next year.

The design team for It's Only A Play includes scenic design by Tony winner Scott Pask, costume design by Academy Award and Tony winner Ann Roth, lighting design by Philip Rosenberg, and sound design by Fitz Patton.

It's Only A Play is produced on Broadway by Tom Kirdahy, Roy Furman, Ken Davenport, Hunter Arnold, Morris Berchard and Susan Dietz, Caiola Productions, Carl Daikeler, Jim Fantaci, Wendy Federman, Barbara Freitag andLoraine Alterman Boyle, Hugh Hayes, Jim Herbert, Ricardo F.
