Delia Ephron play 'Left on Tenth' to premiere on Broadway

Julianna Margulies and Peter Gallagher will star in the new stage adaptation of Ephron's same-named memoir, beginning performances in New York this fall.

UPDATE: Left on Tenth on Broadway has set its performance dates and theatre. Performances begin September 26 ahead of an October 23 opening at the James Earl Jones Theatre. Peter Francis James and Kate MacCluggage join the cast alongside Julianna Margulies and Peter Gallagher.

Left on Tenth, a new play by bestselling author and screenwriter Delia Ephron, will premiere on Broadway this fall at a date and theatre to be announced.

Ephron is known for her work on romantic comedies, with her screenwriting credits including You've Got Mail and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Left on Tenth, adapted from her same-named memoir, tells Ephron's own love story: how she sparks a connection with a man from her past just as her life takes an unexpected turn.

Emmy, Golden Globe, and Screen Actors Guild Award winner Julianna Margulies (ER) will star as Delia alongside Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild award winner Peter Gallagher (The O.C.) as Peter. Tony Award winner Susan Stroman directs.

“I am grateful and thrilled to be working with these champions of theater – Susan Stroman and [producer] Daryl Roth,” Ephron said in a statement. “Left on Tenth is about a perilous and wondrous time of my life. We invite you to join our team of warriors and become believers yourselves.”
