Pine joins Noth and original New York cast members Dan Bittner, Olivia Thirlby and Isiah Whitlock. Mia Barron and Justin Huen round out the L.A. cast. Doug Hughes — who staged the Washington, DC-set campaign drama for Atlantic Theater Company Off-Broadway — returns to direct at the Geffen.
"Set against the backdrop of a close presidential race, Farragut North is a timely tale of hubris, loyalty and the lust for power," according to show notes.
