Time Stands Still plays final performance

Pulitzer Prize winner Donald Margulies' Time Stands Still, directed by Tony Award winner Daniel Sullivan, plays its final performance at the Cort Theatre on 30 Jan 2011, having played 16 previews and 126 regular performances.

Time Stands Still enjoyed an extended sold-out run at Manhattan Theatre Club's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre last spring and re-opened on 7 Oct 2010 at Broadway's Cort Theatre for a limited engagement that was originally scheduled to end on 23 Jan 2011, but was extended through to 30 Jan 2011.

Directed by Tony Award winner Daniel Sullivan, Time Stands Still stars Laura Linney, Brian d'Arcy James and Eric Bogosian and Christina Ricci.

The play received two Tony-nominations: Best Play and Best Actress in a Play (Laura Linney).

Time Stands Still: Are we supposed to deny ourselves ordinary happiness because there's misery in the world? James and Sarah (Linney), a journalist and a photographer, have been together for nine years and share a passion for documenting the realities of war. But when injuries force them to return home to New York, the adventurous couple confronts the prospect of a more conventional life.

The creative team includes John Lee Beatty (scenic design), Rita Ryack (costume design), Peter Kaczorowski (lighting design), Darron L West (sound design), Peter Golub (original music), and Thomas Schall (fight direction).

The drama is produced on Broadway by Manhattan Theatre Club Productions, Inc. (Lynne Meadow, Artistic Director; Barry Grove Executive Producer), Nelle Nugent, Bud Martin, Ted Snowden, and Wendy Federman.
