Directed by Carolyn Cantor, the Manhattan Theatre Club production will officially open Dec. 4. The cast will feature Hannah Cabell (Jane Eyre at The Acting Company), Geraldine Hughes (Translations at MTC), and Paul Sparks (Broadway's Take Me Out). Pumpgirl, according to press notes, is described as "a startling tale of three lives colliding in rural Ireland. The play unfolds with the story of a homely, tomboyish pump girl (Cabell) at a rundown gas station. When a local racetrack star (Sparks) becomes the focus of her obsession, the affair threatens more than the feelings of his disenchanted wife (Hughes)."
The creative team comprises David Korins (scenic design), Mimi O'Donnell (costume design), David Weiner (lighting design), Robert Kaplowitz (sound design) and Deborah Hecht (dialect coach).
City Center – Stage II is located in Manhattan at 131 West 55th Street. Tickets, priced $50, are available by calling (212) 581-1212 or by visiting www.ManhattanTheatreClub.com.
