Tony nominee Geneva Carr and Morgan Spector have boarded the American premiere of Nick Payne's Incognito. They will join the previously announced Charlie Cox and Heather Lind in the Constellations playwright's latest work, which will be directed by Doug Hughes. The production is set to begin previews on May 3 and officially open on May 24 at Manhattan Theatre Club’s New York City Center—Stage I.
Carr received a Tony nod for Hand to God; other New York theater credits include Trevor, Just Sex, I Wanna Destroy You, Finding Claire, Rose’s Dilemma, Clash by Night, Betty’s Summer Vacation and Boise. Spector can currently be seen off-Broadway in Ironbound. He has appeared on Broadway in A View From The Bridge, Machinal and Harvey.
The four actors will play a combined 21 characters within Incognito’s three interwoven stories. A pathologist steals the brain of Albert Einstein; a neuropsychologist embarks on her first romance with another woman; a seizure patient forgets everything but how much he loves his girlfriend. Incognito braids these mysterious tales into a whole that asks whether memory and identity are nothing but illusions.
The limited engagement will run through June 26.
