Complete Casting Set for Revival of David Hare's Plenty, Starring Rachel Weisz, Off-Broadway

We now have complete casting for the first major New York revival of David Hare’s Plenty. Directed by David Leveaux and featuring the previously announced Rachel Weisz and Corey Stoll, the show will begin previews off-Broadway on October 4 and run through November 6. Opening night is set for October 20 at the Public Theater.

Joining Weisz as Susan Traherne and Stoll as Raymond Brock will be Pun Bandhu (Wit) as M. Aung, Ken Barnett (Fun Home) as Codename Lazar, Emily Bergl (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof) as Alice Park, Dani De Waal (Picnic) as Louise, Mike Iveson (Orange Is the New Black) as Another Frenchman, Byron Jennings (She Loves Me) as Leonard Darwin, LeRoy McClain (The History Boys) as Mick, Tim Nicolai (Madam Secretary) as John Begley, Paul Niebanck (Barbecue) as Sir Andrew Charleson, Ann Sanders (The King and I) as Mme. Aung, Benjamin Thys (Measure for Measure) as A Frenchman and Liesel Allen Yeager (Vanya and Sonia and Masha And Spike) as Dorcas.

One of the most celebrated plays in the Public’s history, the groundbreaking play is the story of Susan Traherne (Weisz), a fiercely intelligent British secret agent flown into France during the Second World War. Susan’s experiences among her war-time colleagues and over the two decades that follow are distilled in powerful scenes in this endlessly layered work about a woman of remarkable bravery, who cannot find in peacetime the values and relationships she cherished in war.

The production will feature scenic design by Mike Britton, costume design by Jess Goldstein, lighting design by David Weiner, original music and sound design by David Van Tieghem and hair and wig design by Leah J. Loukas.
