The New Group opens its season with the play that is directed by Tony Award winner Robert Falls (Death of a Salesman, Long Day's Journey Into Night). The Jacksonian will officially open Nov. 7 for a limited run through Dec. 15 at the Acorn Theatre.

The complete cast includes Harris, Pullman and Madigan, as well as Glenne Headly and Juliet Brett.

The play received its premiere in February 2012 at the Geffen Playhouse. Harris, Headly, Madigan and Pullman were part of the original cast.

Here's how it's billed: "Jackson, Mississippi, 1964. When his wife kicks him out, respectable dentist Bill Perch (Ed Harris) moves into the seedy Jacksonian Motel. There, his downward spiral is punctuated by encounters with his teenage daughter (Juliet Brett), a gold-digging motel employee (Glenne Headly), a treacherous bartender (Bill Pullman), and his now-estranged wife (Amy Madigan). Revolving around the night of a murder, The Jacksonian, brimming with suspense and dark humor, unearths the eerie tensions and madness in a town poisoned by racism."

The production will have set design by Walt Spangler, costume design by Ana Kuzmanic, lighting design by Daniel Ionazzi and original music and sound design by Richard Woodbury.
