News Foxworth and Brenneman Star in L.A. Run of Work Song: Three Views of Frank Lloyd Wright Robert Foxworth and Amy Brenneman star in the Los Angeles Theatre Works' run of Work Song: Three Views of Frank Lloyd Wright, starting Oct. 11 at the Skirball Cultural Center.

Eric Simonson stages the west coast premiere of the work, playing through Oct. 15, that he co-wrote with Jeffrey Hatcher for the California company's "The Play's The Thing" radio theater series which is performed live and recorded for future broadcast.

Foxworth (known for his work in Twelve Angry Men, "Six Feet Under," Judgment at Nuremberg, Honour, Ivanov "Falcon Crest" and "Syriana") and Brenneman (LATW's Top Girls, Desire Under the Elms, "Judging Amy," "Your Friends and Neighbors") lead the cast that also features Jim Beaver, Chris Butler, Matthew Patrick Davis, Sean Dougherty, Charles Janasz, Kathryn Meisle, Kali Rocha and Raphael Sbarge.

Work Song offers a "view of one of the great architects of the modern era," as a release states. The scribes "explore tensions between the masterful Wright and his tempestuous relationships. How did Wright's art continue to thrive amid so much personal chaos?"
