Golden Globe Award-winning, Academy Award-nominated actress Amy Madigan directs the West Coast premiere of a new play by former publicist/talent manager/producer-turned-playwright Neil Koenigsberg. Off the King's Road opens tonight, June 27 as a guest production at the Odyssey Theatre. BroadwayWorld has a look at the cast in action below!

Tom Bower (Out of the Furnace, Crazy Heart, Pollock, Die Hard 2) stars as retired American businessman Matt Browne. After the death of his wife, Matt escapes to his favorite city, London, for a week's respite at a small hotel. The five person cast also includes Casey Kramer, Thaddeus Shafer, Michael Uribes and Maria Zyrianova.

Off the King's Road premiered in New York at Theater for the New City in 2013. Previously, Koenigsberg had two one-acts produced off-Broadway as part of the Summer Shorts Festival at 59 E. 59 St. Theaters: On A Bench and Fit.
