Marriage plays to Broadway
Two celebrated stage works about marriages in crisis by Tom Stoppard and Donald Margulies are heading to Broadway.
The Roundabout Theatre Company said Monday that Margulies’ Pulitzer Prize-winning play “Dinner with Friends” will be part of its 2013-14 theatrical season, as will a revival of Stoppard’s Tony Award-winning play “The Real Thing.”
Margulies’ play, an unsettling drama about how the breakup of one couple affects another, will be directed by Tony Award nominee Pam MacKinnon.
Stoppard’s play, which debuted on Broadway in 1983 and was revived in 2000, examines how art imitates life. The revival will be directed by Sam Gold.
Casting, dates and theaters will be announced later.
is an editor. The Los Angeles Times reports that Schwarzenegger has been named executive editor of Muscle & Fitness and Flex magazines.
It’s a position that the former Mr. Olympia held briefly 10 years ago, after winning California’s gubernatorial recall election. After being criticized for potential conflict of interest, he quit the job.
The Times says Schwarzenegger, who has appeared on the magazines’ covers more than 60 times, will contribute columns and other input.
In a statement, Schwarzenegger says it was publications like Muscle & Fitness and Flex that inspired him to start lifting weights.
