Donald Margulies’ Tony-nominated play Time Stands Still, which received its Broadway premiere at Manhattan Theatre Club’s Samuel J. Friedman Theatre in January, is coming back to Broadway. The production, directed by Daniel Sullivan, will feature three of four original cast members: Laura Linney, Brian d’Arcy James and Eric Bogosian. The fourth star, Alicia Silverstone, will not return with the show. Performances are expected to begin on September 23, 2010 at a Shubert Theatre to be announced.
Time Stands Still centers on James and Sarah, a journalist and a photographer that have been together for nine years and share a passion for documenting the realities of war. But when injuries force them to return home to New York, the adventurous couple confronts the prospect of a more conventional life.
The production was honored with two Tony Award nominations: Best Play and Best Leading Actress in a Play for Linney. Casting for the fourth role will be announced in the coming weeks.
