⭐ THE INHERITANCE ANNOUNCED TO CLOSE ON BROADWAY ⭐
The Broadway premiere of Matthew Lopez’s The Inheritance, directed by Stephen Daldry, will close, it has been announced.
It will play its final performance at the Ethel Barrymore Theater on 15th March.
The two-part epic will have played 46 previews (28 of The Inheritance Part 1 and 18 of The Inheritance Part 2) and 138 performances (86 of The Inheritance Part 1 and 52 of The Inheritance Part 2) at the time of closing.
A re-imagining of E.M. Forster’s Howards End in present-day New York City, The Inheritance follows a cross-generational group of men as they deal with the aftermath of the AIDS crisis and what it means to be gay in contemporary America.
Tony Goldwyn, who recently joined the cast, was set to temporarily replace John Benjamin Hickey during a four-month leave of absence while Hickey directs Neil Simon’s Plaza Suite on Broadway. Goldwyn will now stay with the show through the remainder of the run.
Really sad this hasn’t done as well as it did in London. One the best pieces of the theatre I’ve EVER seen! ! !
