Darren Criss To Star Alongside Laurence Fishburne And Sam Rockwell In Broadway Revival Of American Buffalo

Exciting news theatre fans. One of Broadway's most popular stars is headed back to the Great White Way. Emmy Award winner Darren Criss, who was last seen on Broadway in Hedwig and the Angry Inch, is set to star in David Mamet's American Buffalo. The show, which also stars Tony Award winner Laurence Fishburn and Academy Award winner Sam Rockwell, will begin previews at the Circle in the Theatre on March 24, 2020, with opening night scheduled for April 14.

Set over the period of one day at a run down junk shop in Chicago, American Buffalo, tells the story of Donny (Laurence Fishburn), the owner of the junk shop, who has recently sold a buffalo nickle to a customer for ninety dollars. Of course the only problem is that the coin might be worth a lot more. So what does he do? He cons his young naive employee Bobby ( Darren Criss), and his poker Buddy Teach (Sam Rockwell) into helping him get it back. An on sale ticket date for the show has yet to be announced.

David Mamet's American Buffalo To Return To Broadway In 2020

Let's see now. A brand new revival of American Buffalo by David Mamet, starring Tony Award winner Laurence Fishburn and Academy Award winner Sam Rockwell. Well I'm sold. The show, which first premiered on Broadway in 1977, takes place over a period of one day in a run down junk shop in Chicago.

Donny (Laurence Fishburn), who owns the junk shop, has recently sold a buffalo nickel to a customer for ninety dollars. Not bad for 1975. The only problem is that the coin may be worth a whole lot more. So what does he do? He cons his young employee Bobby, and his poker buddy Teach (Sam Rockwell) into helping him get in back.

Now I'll admit I was a little underwhelmed by the 2008 production. That one starred John Leguizamo, Cedric The Entertainer, and Haley Joel Osment and closed after twenty previews and eight performances.Not exactly a hit theatre fans.Here's hoping this new production fares a little better. Directed by Neil Pepe, American Buffalo is scheduled to begin previews in March 2020, with opening night set for April 14. As of now, no theatre or on sale date has been announced. Be sure to check this website for further updates. Until next time theatre fans.
