The Broadway production of Neil LaBute's Reasons to Be Pretty will end its run at the Lyceum Theatre on June 14. The hip romantic drama was nominated for three 2009 Tony Awards including Best Play, but won in none of its categories.
Directed by Terry Kinney, Reasons to Be Pretty centers on Greg, whose tight-knit social circle is thrown into turmoil when his off-handed remarks about a female co-worker's pretty face (and his girlfriend’s lack thereof) get back to said girlfriend. But that's just the beginning.
The play started performances at the Lyceum on March 13 and opened on April 2, having previously enjoyed a successful run off-Broadway at the Lucille Lortel Theatre. That production recently won a Broadway.com Audience Award for Favorite New Off-Broadway Play.
Reasons to Be Pretty stars Thomas Sadoski and Marin Ireland, who were both honored with Tony nominations for their performances, as well as Piper Perabo and Steven Pasquale.
