We Live Here: more production info announced

Manhattan Theatre Club have announced further production details for the world premiere of Zoe Kazan's We Live Here, opening at NY City Center Stage I on 12 Oct 2011, following previews from 22 Sep 2011.

Obie Award winner Sam Gold (Circle Mirror Transformation), will direct a cast that features Betty Gilpin (Dinah), Oscar Isaac (Daniel) and Jeremy Shamos (Sandy).

The design team includes John Lee Beatty (set), David Zinn (costume), Ben Stanton (lighting) and Ryan Rumery (sound).

Allie Bateman's wedding is Sunday. When 'Dinah' (Gilpin), her precocious younger sister, returns to their parents' home for the festivities, she brings more than anyone expected: a new boyfriend, whose hidden history resurrects passions and painful memories for the whole family. Over one emotionally charged weekend, The Batemans must acknowledge and accept loss to gain hope for regeneration.

Additional casting, performance schedule, and other listings information for We Live Here will be announced in the coming weeks.
