The production, directed by Doug Hughes, was originally announced to play a limited engagement through Jan. 9. There have been reports that commercial producers are seeking a wider life for the production, about a nun and priest who clash in a Bronx parochial school in the 1960s. According to Variety, producer Carole Shorenstein Hays (Take Me Out, Caroline or Change, Gem of the Ocean) holds commercial rights to "Doubt."

 

The cast features Heather Goldenhersh, Cherry Jones, Adriane Lenox and Brían F. O'Byrne.

The creative team includes John Lee Beatty (set design), Catherine Zuber (costume design), Pat Collins (lighting design), and David Van Tieghem (original music & sound design).

"In the 1960s, at a Catholic school in the Bronx, a nun grows suspicious when a priest begins taking too much interest in the life of a young male student," according to MTC. "Is she being overly protective...or not protective enough?"

Tickets can be reserved by calling CityTix at (212) 581-1212. Tickets for performances through Jan. 9 are $60. Tickets for performances from Jan. 11-30 are $65.
