Stephen Karam’s The Humans, which just opened officially off-Broadway on October 25, will transfer to the Great White Way next year. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the production will play Broadway in early spring 2016, with the cast from the current Roundabout production—including Reed Birney and Jayne Houdyshell—intact.
In addition to Birney and Houdyshell, the company includes Arian Moayed as Richard, Lauren Klein as Fiona, Cassie Beck as Aimee and Sarah Steele as Brigid.
Joe Mantello directs the production, which is scheduled to play off-Broadway's Laura Pels Theatre through December 27. No word yet on exact dates or a venue for the move to the Great White Way.
This will mark the Broadway debut of Karam, whose previous plays include Sons of the Prophet, Speech & Debate and columbinus. The show follows Mr. Blake, who, after a sleepless night, brings his family from Pennsylvania to his daughter’s new apartment to celebrate Thanksgiving. Family tensions reach a boiling point as things start to go bump in the night.
