Martha Plimpton |
Plimpton made her Broadway debut in 2004 with 16 Wounded at the Walter Kerr Theatre. Her Off-Broadway credits include The False Servant, Flesh & Blood, Boston Marriage, Pericles, Hobson’s Choice, and subUrbia.
Shining City, directed by Robert Falls, will play the Biltmore Theatre beginning April 13th and officially open on May 3rd.
"Originally produced at London’s Royal Court Theater, Shining City is set in Dublin, where a guilt-ridden man (Platt) reaches out to a therapist (O’Byrne) after seeing the ghost of his recently deceased wife. Wrestling with his own demons, the therapist can only do so much to help. Routine visits between the two men quickly become a gripping struggle to survive, changing both of them for the rest of their lives."
