The Vineyard Theatre has announced complete casting for its forthcoming world premiere of The Amateurs, written by Jordan Harrison and directed by Oliver Butler. The cast includes Kyle Beltran, Quincy Tyler Bernstine, Michael Cyril Creighton, Greg Keller, Jennifer Kim, and Thomas Jay Ryan.

The limited engagement is scheduled to begin previews at the Vineyard Theatre on February 8, 2018, before an official opening on February 27.

Synopsis: "A scrappy troupe of pageant players races across 14th-century Europe, struggling to outrun the Black Death -- and medieval subscribers. The arrival of a mysterious new actor sends Hollis, the leading lady, in search of answers that can only be found off-script... and soon one century's plague begins to look a lot like another, more recent, one. This wildly inventive and funny new work examines the origins of creativity: When does a crisis destroy art, and when does it set it spinning?"

The Vineyard Theatre's current world premiere production of David Cale's Harry Clarke, starring Billy Crudup, continues through to December 10, 2017.
