That's right theatre fans.Tony Award winner Linda Lavin returns to the stage this Spring in Donald Marguiles' Collected Stories. The show which begins previews on April 9 at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre was first seen Off-Broadway back in 1997. That production like this one was also produced by Manhattan Theatre Club. This is also the second play to open this season by Mr. Marguiles. Time Stands Still which starred Laura Linney closed last month after a critically acclaimed limited run also at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre on Broadway.
Now while I have always enjoyed Ms. Lavin's work over the years my main reason for seeing the show is not because of her but because of her costar Sarah Paulson. Besides one of my favorite shows Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip as well as numerous television and film appearances over the years she is a great stage actress having played opposite Jessica Lange in the Broadway revival of The Glass Menagerie in 2005.
Now for those of you that are not familiar with the show here is a brief synopsis about the play from it's shows website. "Collected Stories chronicles the relationship between two female writers: Ruth Steiner (Lavin), a celebrated New York author with a dry wit and a distinguished career; and her bright-eyed young protégé, Lisa Morrison. As their relationship evolves and the line between fact and fiction starts to blur, their fascinating story comes to an explosive conclusion."
As is the case with all Manhattan Theatre Club productions it is a limited run with tickets selling thru June 13 at the is time. However if reviews are good expect it to extend at least for a few weeks. We shall see. By the way if you need tickets to see Collected Stories we can get you tickets to see the show at some incredible rates. From now thru June 13 you can get tickets to see the show at below face value. Who doesn't love a bargain? I know I do. Get your tickets to see Collected Stories on Broadway.
