Photo Flash: First Look at Haunting New Play JONAH AND OTTO at Theatre Row

JONAH AND OTTO, by celebrated UK playwright Robert Holman, began performances last night and the official Opening is set for next Wednesday, February 8th at The Lion Theatre at Theatre Row, 410 West 42 Street. Under the direction of Geraldine Hughes, Jonah and Otto stars Sean Gormley and Rupert Simonian. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the duo onstage below!

In 2003, Jonah is 26, Otto, 57-two men different in every way. But not everything is what it seems when their two lives collide one summer's night in a mysterious walled garden on the south coast of England. As their stories of love and loss unravel in front of us and memories of the past unturned come to light, on parting, neither can be the same again. Robert Holman's "intricately layered creation, brimming with emotional wonder" (The Independent) is a deeply humane, funny and ultimately haunting exploration of what it is to be alive.

Set design for Jonah and Otto is by Ann Beyersdorfer, with lighting design by Kate Bashore, costume design by Katie Sue Nicklos, and sound design by Ian Wehrle.
