Butley

Tony winner Nathan Lane plays a professor spiraling out of control in the revival of this dark comedy.

Butley Moves Broadway Opening by One Day

Simon Gray's Butley, starring Nathan Lane, will have its official Broadway opening on October 26, one day later than previously announced. Previews are still scheduled to begin at the Booth Theatre on October 5.

Butley is a dark comedy about the unfortunate life of a literary professor who suffers the loss of his wife and his lover all in one day. When Butley's estranged wife, Anne, announces her intention to marry a mutual friend, and his live-in lover and office mate Joey moves out to join another man, Butley is even more out of sorts than usual. And to top it off, his ill-respected colleague has just published her book on Byron—a task 20 years in the making.

Nicholas Martin will direct Butley on Broadway.
