THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS, the highly anticipated new Kander and Ebb musical now in previews at the Vineyard Theatre, may be preparing itself for a Broadway transfer as early as this season, pending the availability of a theater. Michael Riedel reports in the New York Post this morning that heavy-hitting producers Fran and Barry Weissler have invested $400,000 into THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS, and writes that 'If the reviews are strong, they'll move it to a small Broadway house, very possibly before this year's Tony cutoff date, should a theater become available.'
Stanley Tucci, who was last seen on the big screen in the chilling role of serial killer George Harvey in 'The Lovely Bones', said in an interview with LoHud.com that directing Ken Ludwig's 'Lend Me a Tenor' has been the 'most fun I've had working in a long time.'
