Ethan Coen's OFFICES Previews Tonight At Linda Gross Theater, Opens 5/7
The world premiere production of OFFICES, Academy Award® winner Ethan Coen's new triptych of one-acts directed by Neil Pepe, begin previews tonight Off-Broadway at Atlantic Theater Company's Linda Gross Theater (336 West 20 Street).
OFFICES officially opens Thursday, May 7 for a limited engagement through Sunday, May 31, 2009.
Hiring and firing are antisocial acts. Workplace pressures make for nasty competition. And the work itself can be meaningless and alienating. Accordingly, the three short plays that make up OFFICES are comedies.
The ensemble cast features Academy Award® winner F. Murray Abraham (Coen's Almost an Evening), Daniel Abeles (Behold, the Bowery!), Brennan Brown (Atlantic's Celebration), Aya Cash (From Up Here), John Bedford Lloyd (Some Americans Abroad), Daniel London (Patch Adams), Mary McCann (Atlantic's Spring Awakening), Joey Slotnick (Almost an Evening), Greg Stuhr (November), C.J. Wilson (Atlantic's The Voysey Inheritance) and Daniel Yelsky (upcoming film Meet Monica Velour).
Academy Award® winner Ethan Coen returns to Atlantic with another world premiere production of one-act comedies. He made his Off-Broadway debut last season with the hit world premiere of Almost an Evening, which transferred Off-Broadway following a sold out extended Atlantic Stage 2 run. Coen has made fourteen movies with his brother Joel, including the Academy Award® winning films No Country for Old Men and Fargo; O Brother, Where Art Thou?; Raising Arizona; Barton Fink; The Hudsucker Proxy, The Big Lebowski and Burn After Reading.
OFFICES plays Tuesday - Friday at 8p, Saturday at 2p & 8p and Sunday at 3p & 7p.Tickets are $65.00, and available by calling Ticket Central at 212-279-4200 (ticketcentral.com).
