Getting Home attempts to prove that anything can happen in New York. Once upon a time on the enchanted isle of Manhattan, Tristan Henderson found himself a free ride home from a prince in a yellow chariot. Jan Harriell found herself the object of two rival princes' affections. And Nilesh Narayan realized that heartache and self-torment have a shelf life of about six years.
Harriell was featured earlier this year in the Encores! mounting of Kismet. She is a Second Stage alum, having appeared in Michael John LaChiusa's Little Fish and Athol Fugard's Sorrows & Rejoicings for the company. Harriell was featured on the Great White Way earlier this season in Lennon. She also appeared on Broadway in Rent. Harriell was a series regular on Ed and Queens Supreme.
Narayan is best known for playing slum dweller-turned-movie star Akaash in the Broadway tuner Bombay Dreams. His other theatrical credits include the recently-shuttered musical Sidd at Dodger Stages, Fucking A at the Public and the Yale Repertory Theater production of The People Next Door.
David Schweizer will direct Getting Home, opening June 14.
