The Manhattan Theatre Club has now announced complete casting for its upcoming U.S. premiere of Incognito, written by Nick Payne and directed by Doug Hughes, beginning previews on 3 May 2016 at New York City Center's Stage I, with an official opening set for 24 May 2016 and a limited engagement through to 26 June 2016.

Joining previously announced cast members Charlie Cox, making his NY stage debut, and Heather Lind, will be Tony nominee Geneva Carr and Morgan Spector. The four actors will share a total of 21 characters within the play's three interwoven stories.

Synopsis: "A pathologist steals the brain of Albert Einstein; a neuropsychologist embarks on her first romance with another woman; a seizure patient forgets everything but how much he loves his girlfriend. Incognito braids these mysterious stories into one whole that asks whether memory and identity are nothing but illusions. Incognito takes us into the last uncharted realm - the mind."

The creative team behind Incognito features scenic design by Scott Pask, costume design by Catherine Zuber, lighting design by Ben Stanton, original music and sound design by David Van Tieghem, fight direction by J. David Brimmer, movement direction by Peter Pucci, and dialect coaching by Stephen Gabis.

Geneva Carr made her Broadway debut as Margery in 'Hand to God' for which she earned a 2015 Tony nomination. Her off-Broadway credits include the MTC production of 'Rose's Dilemma' and the Playwrights Horizons production of 'Betty's Summer Vacation.' Her screen credits include "College Road Trip," "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Undead," and "Love & Other Drugs."

Morgan Spector has previously appeared on Broadway in 'Machinal' (2014), 'Harvey' (2012) and 'A View From the Bridge' (2010) as well as the off-Broadway production of 'Russian Transport.' His screen credits include "The Drop," "The Last Airbender," "Allegiance," and "Boardwalk Empire."
