IMAGINING MADOFF Set to Play Theatre J, Begins Tonight
By: BWW News Desk
According to the NY Times, a revised version of IMAGINING MADOFF, which was sheduled to play Washington's Theatre J last summer but was cancelled, is now scheduled to take run August 31 through September 26.
The play was initially cancelled due to complaints from Elie Wiesel, who was originally a character in the play and who found it "obscene" and "defamatory". Wiesel has been replaced with a character called Solomon Galkin, who is a poet and, like Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor.
The play deals with a meeting between Bernard Madoff and Galkin. The production at Stageworks/Hudson will be directed by Laura Margolis and will star Mark Margolis (Madoff) and Howard Green (Galkin).
