The Mentalist star Robin Tunney will make her stage debut opposite the previously announced Zachary Quinto in Smokefall off-Broadway. Directed by Anne Kauffman, the MCC Theater production will begin performances on February 4, 2016 at the Lucille Lortel Theatre, where it will run through March 13. Opening night is set for February 22.
Quinto will appear as Footnote/Fetus Two/Samuel, with Tunney as Violet. Rounding out the cast will be Brian Hutchison (Man and Boy) as Daniel/Fetus One, Julia Garner (Grandma) as Beauty and Jon DeVries (Devour the Snow) as Colonel/Johnny.
Written by Noah Haidle, Smokefall combines magical realism and vaudeville while introducing audiences to two prenatal philosophy-swapping Twins, a dirt-eating Beauty, a Father and Footnote, who acts as the show’s guide.
