Tickets Now on Sale for Looped, Starring Valerie Harper

Tickets are now available for Looped, starring Emmy Award winner Valerie Harper as over-the-top screen legend Tallulah Bankhead. Matthew Lombardo’s comedy begins performances at Broadway's Lyceum Theatre on February 19, with opening night set for March 14. Rob Ruggiero directs.

Looped tells the story of Bankhead, the internationally celebrated actress, being called into a sound studio in 1965 to re-record (or “loop”) one line of dialogue for what would be her last film, the dreadful Die, Die My Darling. Southern, but by no means a belle, Bankhead was known for her wild partying and convention-defying exploits that outshone even today’s celebrity bad girls. Given her inebriated state (and inability to loop the line perfectly), what ensues is a hilarious showdown between an uptight and conservative sound editor, Danny Miller, and the outrageous star.

Harper is joined in the cast by Brian Hutchison and Michael Mulheren. The creative team includes set designer Adrian W. Jones, costume designer William Ivey Long, wig designer Charles LaPointe, lighting designer Ken Billington and sound designer Michael Hooker/Peter Fitzgerald.
