The New York Times has confirmed that THE ORPHAN'S HOME CYCLE will aim for a fall 2010 Broadway opening, as opposed to rushing the show in this spring, as we previously speculated. While the show had the opportunity to transfer from its current home Off-Broadway at the Signature Theatre into the Neil Simon Theatre on Broadway for a spring opening, the producers and director Michael Wilson have opted to take the extra time to better prepare the show for the move.
NOW CIRCA THEN follows the story of two historical re-enactors, history buff and New York native Gideon and the thoroughly modern Margie, a new-comer to the city, who work together at the Tenement Museum on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. The two play Julian and Josephine Glockner, a pulled-from-the-records, real-life immigrant couple from Prussia. The tenement is their home in the New World - at the top of the play, they have just arrived and the real-life and seemingly opposite Gideon and Margie, have just met.
