Lonergan directs the world premiere, which stars Matthew Broderick and Catalina Sandino Moreno. Also featured are J. Smith Cameron, Stephanie Cannon, Kieran Culkin, Merwin Goldsmith, Grant Shaud and Missy Yager.
The play, according to the writer, "follows an astronomy teacher whose midlife crisis is thrown into relief by an unexpected affair that changes everything. It's set in 1995, the last year before the [Hayden] planetarium — one of the great NYC institutions — was torn down."
