Opening Night is set for April 24th for the Red Bull Theater production of Richard Brinsley Sheridan's THE SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL, directed by Marc Vietor. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

The production stars Dana Ivey (Tony Award nominee for Butley, The Rivals, The Last Night of Ballyhoo, Sunday in the Park with George, Heartbreak House); Mark Linn-Baker (My Favorite Year, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, A Year with Frog and Toad, "Perfect Strangers"); Frances Barber (internationally renowned West End actress: King Lear and The Seagull with Ian McKellen at BAM, the Donmar's Julius Caesar at St Ann's Warehouse, "Doctor Who," Prick Up Your Ears, and the Pet Shop Boys musical Closer to Heaven); and Henry Stram (Titanic, The Grey Zone), along with Helen Cespedes, Christian Conn, Christian DeMarais, Jacob Dresch, Ramsey Faragallah, Ryan Garbayo, Bradley Gibson, Nadine Malouf, Ben Mehl, and Derek Smith ('Tis Pity She's a Whore, The Green Bird - Tony Award nomination).

THE SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL has scenic design by Anna Louizos (School of Rock; The Mystery of Edwin Drood, In the Heights, High Fidelity - Tony Award nominations), costume design by Andrea Lauer (American Idiot, Bring It On, Brooklynite), lighting design by Russell H. Champa (China Doll, In the Next Room or The Vibrator Play, Julia Sweeney's God Said "Ha!"), sound and music by Greg Pliska (Sylvia, War Horse), original song by Gideon & Hubcap, hair & wig design by Charles G. LaPointe, with choreography by Paul McGill (The Legend of Georgia McBride, Hedwig and the Angry Inch). Stuart Howard served as casting director.

THE SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL began its limited engagement Friday April 8th at The Lucille Lortel Theater (121 Christopher Street). In this comic masterpiece, Sheridan mercilessly dissects a social network of grotesques, gossips, lustful hypocrites and anonymous assassins of reputation who live in a world without privacy, morality or taste. After sixteen years abroad Oliver Surface returns home incognito to test the true characters of his nephews, Charles (a prodigal, apparently), and Joseph (a paragon, supposedly). Meanwhile he discovers his old friend Peter Teazle has wed a young country wife and is in marital purgatory, being victimized in print and society by a spiteful team of imbeciles and rumor-mongers - Fun for the whole family.
