Breakfast at Tiffany's - 2013 Broadway History , Info & More

Based on Truman Capote's most beloved masterwork, Breakfast at Tiffany's is set in New York City in 1943. 'Fred' (Cory Michael Smith) a young writer from Louisiana, meets Holly Golightly (Emilia Clarke), a charming, vivacious and utterly elusive good-time girl. Everyone falls in love with Holly - including Fred. But Fred is poor, and Holly's other suitors include a playboy millionaire and the future president of Brazil. As war rages on in Europe, Holly begins to fall in love with Fred - just as her past catches up with her. Directed by Sean Mathias, the production also stars six-time Emmy Award nominee George Wendt.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Breakfast at Tiffany's

More Waifish Than Wild, the Ingénue Returns
5 / 10

Holly Golightly does not. Go lightly, that is. The new stage adaptation of 'Breakfast at Tiffany's,' Truman Capote's beloved portrait of a glamorous waif in 1940s New York, moves with a distinctly leaden step, as if it dreaded what might be waiting around every dark corner of the sinister city it portrays....Mr. Greenberg's adaptation incorporates far more of Capote's words than the Edwards film did, with shimmering passages of reminiscence that come directly from the book. Yet no matter how finespun the original ingredients, this particular soufflé seems doomed never to rise.

Review: 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' is ill-conceived
5 / 10

The cat is just one of the problems in this ill-conceived and poorly executed adaptation of a classic American tale that opened Wednesday at the Cort Theatre...The many scenes stubbornly refuse to add up to much and it remains as flat as Golightly is supposed to be effervescent. Richard Greenberg's adaptation of Truman Capote's classic 1958 novella is extremely faithful - some chunks of dialogue have been lifted directly from the book - without adding much. Actually, director Sean Mathias has tacked on more complexity to scenes for reasons that are unclear...Come to think of it, maybe the cat can be forgiven for bad behavior. It has, after all, had to sit through too much of this.

If you haven't heard, the actor playing 'Cat' in our show is an actual feline. That's not a baby in a cat suit. It's the real deal. Thus the interest from the press. ('It's a real CAT! How crazy is that?!?!')

It has now been almost 3 weeks since Breakfast at Tiffany's opened on Broadway on March 20th. It's hard to believe we started rehearsal on January 28th! Time really does fly when you're having fun.

Review - Breakfast At Tiffany's
by Michael Dale - March 30, 2013


Even if Richard Greenberg's stage adaptation of Truman Capote's Breakfast At Tiffany's doesn't completely seduce Broadway, I have a hunch that shortly after the amateur and regional rights eventually become available, this will be one of the most produced plays in the country.  Why?  Because sandwiched between the years where they envision themselves as Cinderella and those where they envision themselves as Blanche DuBois, I'd estimate a large chunk of America's artistically inclined female population loves envisioning themselves as Holly Golightly and they are going to want to do this play.
