Forty years after it took the 1967 Tony Award for Best Play, Harold Pinter's
The Homecoming returned, well,
home—to Broadway. In a revival directed by Daniel Sullivan at the Cort Theatre, Pinter's testosterone-driven drama of a ornery patriarch and the tension that ensues when one of his three sons shows up unexpectedly on the father's doorstep with his wife, whom no one in the family has ever met (or even knew existed!), opened on Sunday, December 16. The starry cast includes Ian McShane (Showtime's
Deadwood), Raul Esparza (
Company), Eve Best (
A Moon for the Misbegotten), Michael McKean (
The Pajama Game), Gareth Saxe (
Heartbreak House) and Broadway debut-er James Frain (TV's
The Tudors). After the opening night curtain calls, we joined the company and their guests for a party at Bond 45. Check it out.
