Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick to reunite on Broadway for ‘It’s Only a Play’ this fall

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick will be back together again on Broadway in a revival of Terrence McNally’s “It’s Only a Play.”

The ensemble also will include Tony Award winner Stockard Channing, Oscar winner F. Murray Abraham and Emmy winner Megan Mullally. Jack O’Brien will direct.

The revival will play the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre, and opening night is set for Oct. 9.

The show, a send-up of show business, is only the latest in works celebrating the behind-the-scenes life of the theatre. Others include “Act One,” a Tony-nominated show built around producer and director Moss Hart’s autobiography, and the upcoming Atlantic Theater Company’s production of Halley Feiffer’s “I’m Gonna Pray For You So Hard,” about an actress and her stage director father spending a boozy night talking.
