Mary McCann and Peter Scanavino
Atlantic Theater Company is proud to announce that the New York premiere production of Olivier Award® winner Simon Stephens play HARPER REGAN has been extended an additional week through Sunday, November 4 following opening to critical acclaim.
Directed by Gaye Taylor Upchurch and starring Atlantic Theater company member Mary McCann leading the celebrated ensemble cast of Vandit Bhatt, Christopher Innvar, Mahira Kakkar, Jordan Lage, Madeleine Martin, Mary Beth Peil, Gareth Saxe, Peter Scanavino, John Sharian and Stephen Tyrone Williams, HARPER REGAN began previews September 20 and officially opened October 10 at Atlantic’s main stage Linda Gross Theater (336 West 20th Street).
One strange evening, Harper Regan (McCann) decides to walk away from her husband (Saxe), her daughter (Martin) and her home. She tells no one where she’s going or whether she’s ever coming back. She tosses family, history and fate straight up in the air, and it looks like she might be gone for good. In Simon Stephens’ acclaimed play, which premiered in 2008 at the UK’s National Theatre, we are folded into an absorbing story about a woman who explores the limits of loyalty, morality, and the bonds of family.
