Those Tony Award-nominated Side Show twins, Emily Skinner and Alice Ripley are paired together again in The Dead (although not as sisters nor attached at the hip this time).
James Joyce's The Dead, sold out for its entire run at Playwrights Horizons, opened Oct. 28 for a run through Nov. 28. In an adaptation from the classic James Joyce short story of the same name, The Dead has a book by Richard Nelson, music by (Irish composer) Shaun Davey and lyrics conceived and adapted by Nelson & Davey.
