Atlantic Theater Company currently presents Chris Noth, Olivia Thirlby and John Gallagher, Jr. in the world premiere of Beau Willimon's Farragut North.

Doug Hughes (Doubt) directs the Off-Broadway show at the Linda Gross Theater.

Noth ("Sex and the City"), Thirlby ("Juno") and Gallagher, Jr. (Spring Awakening) are joined in the cast by Kate Blumberg, Otto Sanchez, Dan Bittner and Isiah Whitlock, Jr.

Farragut North centers on "Stephen Bellamy (Gallagher, Jr.), a wunderkind press secretary who has built a career that men twice his age would envy," according to show notes. "During a tight presidential primary race, Stephen's meteoric rise falls prey to the backroom politics of more seasoned operatives. Farragut North is a timely story about the lust for power and the costs one will endure to achieve it."

Here is a look at the production:
