The Geffen Playhouse presents the first play in its 2017 / 2018 season, Halley Feiffer's A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Gynecologic Oncology Unit at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center of New York City. The show is currently in previews at the Gil Cates Theater at the Geffen Playhouse, with an opening night set for Wednesday, September 13. The production closes Sunday, October 8. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
Directed by Trip Cullman (Broadway's Six Degrees of Separation, Significant Other; Geffen's Barcelona, Choir Boy), this West Coast Premiere features Feiffer as Karla, Jason Butler Harner as Don, Eileen T'Kaye as Geena and JoBeth Williams as Marcie. The production marks Feiffer's first appearance in one of her own plays.
Sitting bedside at Memorial Sloan Kettering has never been so entertaining. While their ailing mothers share a hospital room, Karla and Don discover truth in the old cliché that opposites attract...and repel...and attract.
