Primary Stages has announced the full cast to the New York premiere of Something You Did by Willy Holtzman (Sabina). The five-member cast features the previously announced Tony Award-winning Joanna Gleason (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Into the Woods) as Alison, a sixties radical, and Jordan Charney (Hearts) as Arthur, Alison's attorney. They will be joined by Tony Award-winner Adriane Lenox (Doubt) as Lenora, Portia as Uneeq and Victor Slezak as Gene.
Carolyn Cantor (Pumpgirl) will direct the final production of this current 23rd Primary Stages season of new works by American Playwrights. Performances begin March 18 for a limited run through April 26, 2008, at Primary Stages at 59E59 Theaters (59 East 59th Street, between Park and Madison Avenues). Opening night is Tuesday, April 1, 2008 at 7PM."Willy Holtzman returns to Primary Stages with his latest work, the story of a notorious Sixties radical that has served nearly 30 years in prison for her part in the accidental killing of an African-American police officer during an explosive war protest. Now she is eligible for parole in a post 9/11 world where bombing is terrorism and dissent, treason. How much can she be faulted for having a conscience? Is she guilty of bringing the war home? Something You Did is a powerfully topical and provocative drama that examines the responsibility of citizens for the actions of their government," explain press notes.The creative team includes Eugene Lee (sets), Jenny Mannis (costumes), Jeff Croiter (lighting), and Lindsay Jones (sound). The Production Stage Manager is Samone Weissman. Single tickets are priced at $60 with a specially priced $20 ticket available to patrons 35 and under during preview performances only.
