Dying City is currently making its American premiere Off-Broadway at LCT's Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater, where it began previews Feb. 15 and opened March 4.

Pablo Schreiber and Rebecca Brooksher star and James MacDonald directs. MacDonald also directed the play's world premiere at London's Royal Court Theatre in spring 2006.

Brooksher plays Kelly, a young therapist whose husband dies in the war in Iraq. One year later, the husband's identical twin brother (Schreiber) arrives at Kelly's door, looking for answers to questions about his brother's death.
