CQ/CX: Atlantic Theater announces the full cast

Atlantic Theater Company has announced the full cast for their world premiere production of Gabe McKinley's CQ/CX.

Directed by five-time Tony Award nominee David Leveaux the cast will feature Larry Bryggman, Peter Jay Fernandez, Tim Hopper, Arliss Howard, Kobi Libii, David Pittu, Steve Rosen and Sheila Tapia.

The show will open on 15 Feb 2012, following previews from 25 Jan 2012, and play a limited engagement through to 4 Mar 2012 at Signature Theatre Company's Peter Norton Space while Atlantic's main stage continues its renovation.

CQ/CX, Jay, an up and coming black reporter at The New York Times, finds his dreams of becoming a famous journalist come crashing down as he becomes the center of a plagiarism scandal. Drawing on his own experience as a newsman, McKinley weaves a story about the collateral damage of unchecked ambition and compounded lies.

The design team for CQ/CX will feature scenic design by David Rockwell, costume design by Jess Goldstein, lighting design by Ben Stanton, original music and sound design by David Van Tieghem and projection design by Peter Nigrini and C. Andrew Bauer.
