Casting has just been completed for the Roundabout Theatre Company’s production of George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion which previews at the American Airlines Theatre Sept. 21 with an official opening Oct. 18.
Jonathan Fielding, who is an Artistic Associate and actor for Fort Worth's Amphibian Productions has been added to the cast playing a bystander. Others in the cast include Claire Danes as Eliza Doolittle, Jefferson Mays as Henry Higgins , and Tony-winner Boyd Gaines as Colonel Pickering.
The Shaw play is based on the classic story: "When Professor Henry Higgins comes across a poor and uneducated Cockney girl named Eliza Doolittle, Higgins makes a bet that he can take Eliza from the gutters of London and pass her off as a society lady, by simply teaching her the right dialect in which to speak. Higgins soon discovers that this task involves much more than knowledge; it involves patience and most importantly, affairs of the heart."
The limited engagement will run through Dec. 16. So if you are planning a trip to New York, tickets will go on sale to the general public August 25 by calling Roundabout Ticket Services at 212-719-1300.
