The first marquee photos and synopsis of Rupert Grint's first Broadway play,
It's Only A Play, were released this past week. The Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre in New York City already has a display up for the play, set to begin previews August 28, 2014. A brief synopsis of the comedy, starring the
Harry Potter actor as a 'wunderkind director' alongside famous theater thespians Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick, Stockard Channing and Megan Mullaly, can be read below.
Quote:
In It's Only a Play, according to producers, "it's opening night of Peter Austin's (Broderick) new play as he anxiously awaits to see if his show is a hit. With his career on the line, he shares his big First Night with his best friend, a television star (Lane), his fledgling producer (Mullally), his erratic leading lady (Channing), his wunderkind director (Grint), an infamous drama critic, and a wide-eyed coat check attendant on his first night in Manhattan. It’s alternately raucous, ridiculous and tender — reminding audiences why there’s no business like show business. Thank God!"
