Peter Friedman and Mare Winningham will lead the world premiere of Greg Pierce’s Her Requiem off-Broadway. Directed by Kate Whoriskey, the previously announced production will play a limited engagement February 6 through March 20 at Lincoln Center’s Claire Tow Theater. Opening night is set for February 22.
Joining Friedman (Twelve Angry Men) and Winningham (Casa Valentina) will be Keilly McQuail (Younger), Naian Gonzalez Norvind (New York stage debut), Robbie Collier Sublett (Other Desert Cities) and Joyce Van Patten (The People in the Picture).
In Her Requiem, Caitlin (Norvind) takes her senior year off from high school to compose a full-scale requiem. Inspired by her dedication, her father, Dean (Friedman), becomes obsessed with requiems and the people who love them, while her mother, Allison (Winningham), becomes concerned about Caitlin’s isolation from everyone aside from her music teacher. As their once-cozy Vermont home becomes a nexus for lost souls, Dean and Allison must confront the fact that their daughter’s project is destroying their family.
Her Requiem will have sets by Derek McLane, costumes by Jessica Pabst, lighting by Amith Chandrashaker and sound by Josh Schmidt.
