Man and Boy Ends Limited Engagement
November 27, 2011

"Three-time Tony Award winner Frank Langella wraps up his run as corrupt international financier Gregor Antonescu in Man and Boy Nov. 27 at Broadway's American Airlines Theatre. Terence Rattigan's 1963 character study opened Oct. 9 as a limited engagement by Roundabout Theatre Company. The "boy" at hand is Gregor's estranged son, played by Adam Driver.

Previews began Sept. 9. By close, it will have played 92 performances. Maria Aitken (The 39 Steps) directs. Langella got an embrace from critics for his juicy turn as a poisonous capitalist who would sell his son if he could." - Playbill.com
