The two artists join the previously announced two-time Tony Award nominee, Emmy Award and Golden Globe winner Alan Rickman (Private Lives, Les Liaisons Dangereuses, the "Harry Potter" franchise).
Directed by Obie Award winner Sam Gold (Circle Mirror Transformation, The Aliens, Tigers Be Still, Kin, The Coward), the production will begin previews Oct. 27 at The Golden Theatre with an official opening scheduled for Nov. 20 at 6:30 PM.
In Seminar, press notes state, "four aspiring young novelists sign up for private writing classes with Leonard (Mr. Rickman), an international literary figure. Under his recklessly brilliant and unorthodox instruction, some thrive and others flounder, alliances are made and broken, sex is used as a weapon and hearts are unmoored. The wordplay is not the only thing that turns vicious as innocence collides with experience in this biting new comedy."
The production will also feature set and costume design by Tony Award nominee and two-time Obie Award winner David Zinn, lighting design by Drama Desk Award nominee Ben Stanton and original music and sound design by two-time Drama Desk Award winner John Gromada.
Final casting and ticketing information will be announced in the coming weeks.

The Golden Theatre is located at 252 West 45th Street.
