Golden Globe & Emmy Winner Danny DeVito to Make Broadway Debut in Arthur Miller's The Price

The 2017 Tony race is heating up! Golden Globe and Emmy winner Danny DeVito will make his Broadway debut as Gregory Solomon in Arthur Miller’s The Price. Directed by Terry Kinney and co-starring the previously announced John Turturro, Tony Shalhoub and Jessica Hecht, the production is scheduled to begin previews on February 16, 2017. Opening night is set for March 16 at Roundabout's American Airlines Theatre, with the limited engagement running through May 7.

DeVito returns to the New York stage, where he began his career acting in multiple off-Broadway productions including Shakespeare in the Park. Most recently, he starred in a 2012 West End production of Neil Simon’s The Sunshine Boys alongside the late Richard Griffiths. DeVito won the Emmy and Golden Globe for Taxi. His numerous film credits include Junior, Batman Returns, Twins, Romancing the Stone, Jewel of the Nile, Ruthless People, Tin Men, Anything Else, Big Fish, Renaissance Man, The Big Kahuna, Hotel Noir and Heist. Producing credits through 2nd Avenue and Jersey Films include Along Came Polly, Man on the Moon, Pulp Fiction, Out of Sight and the Oscar-nominated Erin Brockovich.

When the Great Depression cost his family their fortune, Victor Franz (Turturro) gave up his dream of an education to support his father. Three decades later, Victor has returned to his childhood home to sell the remainder of his parents’ estate. His wife (Hecht), his estranged brother (Shalhoub), and the wily furniture dealer (DeVito) hired to appraise their possessions all arrive with their own agendas, forcing Victor to confront a question, long-stifled, about the value of his sacrifice.

The production will feature sets by Derek McLane, costumes by Sarah J. Holden, lights by David Weiner and sound by Rob Milburn and Michael Bodeen.
