Roundabout Theatre Company has now announced casting for the Roundabout Underground world premiere of Something Clean, written by Selina Fillinger and directed by Margot Bordelon, which, as previously reported, is set to begin previews at the Black Box Theatre within the Harold & Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre on May 4, 2019, ahead of an official opening on May 30 and a limited engagement through to June 30, 2019.

The complete cast of Somthing Clean includes Tony Award nominee Kathryn Erbe (as Charlotte), Tony Award nominee Daniel Jenkins (as Doug), and Christopher Livingston (as Joey).

Ms. Erbe is perhaps best known for her TV role as Detective Alexandra Eames on "Law & Order: Criminal Intent." She earned a Tony Award nomination in 1991 for her performance as Mary in The Speed of Darkness, made her Broadway debut in The Grapes of Wrath in 1990 and went on to play Verochka in the 1995 Broadway revival of A Month in the Country. She was last seen on the Great White Way in Manhattan Theatre Club's 2016 Broadway premiere of The Father.

Mr. Jenkins earned his Tony nomination in 1985 for his Broadway debut performance as Huckleberry Finn in Big River. Since then, he has appeared in the Broadway productions of Oslo, Golden Boy, Billy Elliot, Mary Poppins, Wrong Mountain, Big, and Angels in America.

Mr. Livingston has previously appeared off-Broadway in the 2016 production of Party People and the 2017 "Shakespeare in the Park" production of Julius Caesar for The Public Theater, as well as The Architecture of Becoming at New York City Center in 2014.

Synopsis: "Wash the dishes. Mop the floors. Change the sheets. Change the past. Charlotte is a wife and mother who'll try anything to put her family back together. Something Clean slips into the jagged cracks of a sex crime's aftermath—the guilt, the grief, and the ways we grapple with the unthinkable."

The creative team features scenic design by Reid Thompson, costume design by Valérie Thérèse Bart, lighting design by Jiyoun Chang, and original compositions and sound design by Palmer Hefferan.

Something Clean Tickets are available now for performances from May 4 through to June 30, 2019.
