Frank Langella

Maria Aitken (The 39 Steps) directs a cast that includes Oscar nominee and three-time Tony winner Langella (Frost/Nixon, Fortune's Fool, Seascape) as Gregor Antonescu, with Adam Driver as Basil Anthony, Francesca Faridany as Countess Antonescu, Zach Grenier as Mark Herries, Brian Hutchison as David Beeston, Virginia Kull as Carol Penn and Michael Siberry as Sven Johnson.

The production is part of the centennial celebration of the birth of English playwright Terence Rattigan. Man and Boy will open on Oct. 9 for a limited engagement to Nov. 27.

Here's how Roundabout bills the 1963 play: "At the height of the Great Depression, ruthless financier Gregor Antonescu's (Langella) business is dangerously close to crumbling. In order to escape the wolves at his door, Gregor tracks down his estranged son Basil in the hopes of using his Greenwich Village apartment as a base to make a company-saving deal. Can this reunion help them reconcile? Or will this corrupt father use his only son as a pawn in one last power play? Man and Boy is a gripping story about family, success and what we're willing to sacrifice for both."

Rattigan's plays French Without Tears, After The Dance, Flare Path, Love In Idleness, While The Sun Shines, The Winslow Boy, The Browning Version, Harlequinade, Adventure Story, Who Is Sylvia?, The Deep Blue Sea, The Sleeping Prince, Separate Tables, Variation On A Theme, Ross, Man And Boy, A Bequest To The Nation, In Praise Of Love and Cause Célèbre. He died in 1977.

The creative team includes Derek McLane (sets), Martin Pakledinaz (costumes), Kevin Adams (lights) and John Gromada (original music and sound design). Man and Boy will play Tuesday through Saturday evening at 8 PM with Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2 PM.

Tickets will be available by calling Roundabout Ticket Services at (212) 719-1300, online at www.roundabouttheatre.org or at the American Airlines Box Office (227 West 42nd Street).

Ticket prices range from $67 to $117.
