Family Drama Ensues: Grand Horizons, Starring Jane Alexander, Michael Urie & More, Opens on Broadway

Bess Wohl's Broadway-debut play Grand Horizons officially opens at the Helen Hayes Theatre on January 23. Tony nominee Leigh Silverman directs the production of Second Stage, which began previews on December 20.

Grand Horizons follows Nancy and Bill, who have spent 50 years as husband and wife. But just as they settle comfortably into their new home in the Grand Horizons senior living community, the unthinkable happens: Nancy suddenly wants out. As their two adult sons struggle to cope with the shocking news, they are forced to question everything they assumed about the people they thought they knew best.

Heading the cast is Tony winner Jane Alexander as Nancy, Emmy winner James Cromwell as Bill, Lortel winner Michael Urie as Brian, Ben McKenzie as Ben, Tony nominee Ashley Park as Jess, Tony winner Priscilla Lopez as Carla and Maulik Pancholy as Tommy.

In celebration of opening night, Broadway.com Resident Artist Justin "Squigs" Robertson sketched a portrait of a talented cast of players introducing a new comic drama to Broadway audiences.

About the Artist: With a desire to celebrate the magic of live theater and those who create it, and with a deep reverence for such touchstones as the work of Al Hirschfeld and the wall at Sardi’s, Squigs is happy and grateful to be among those carrying on the traditions where theater and caricature meet. He was born and raised in Oregon, lived in Los Angeles for quite a long time and now calls New York City his home.
