Based on the Richard Matheson novel and the 1980 film of the same name, Somewhere in Time tells the story of Richard Collier (Silverman), a young playwright who has a strange encounter with a mysterious, older woman on the opening night of his first play. Several years later, after his career and life have fallen into shambles, Richard checks into a hotel he frequented in his youth. But his stay at the hotel turns into a journey of a lifetime as he unravels history and time to uncover a powerful (but maybe impossible) love.

Cryer’s Broadway credits include 1776, Come Summer, Ari, The Desert Song, Evita, Coastal Disturbances, The Phantom of the Opera, Chess, The Devil’s Disciple and Lend Me a Tenor. His film and TV credits include All My Children, As the World Turns, Escape From Alcatraz, American Gigolo and Law & Order. He is the father of Two and a Half Men star Jon Cryer.
