Original cast members Billy Carter and Eugene O'Hare will reprise the roles on Broadway that they originated in the acclaimed Old Vic production of A Moon for the Misbegotten. The pair join previously announced stars Kevin Spacey, Eve Best and Colm Meaney to complete the cast of the Howard Davies-helmed Eugene O'Neill play.
The production will run for 84 performances only at Broadway's Brooks Atkinson Theatre. Performances begin on March 29 and end on June 10 with opening night set for April 9.
Carter's credits include the National Theatre production of Translations, Bruises and Macbeth. He will play T. Stedman Harder. O'Hare, who plays Mike Hogan, also appeared in Translations and at the Old Vic Studios in The Next Big Thing.
O'Neill's only love story, A Moon for the Misbegotten tells the shattering story of Josie Hogan Best, a towering woman with a quick tongue and a ruined reputation who lives in a dilapidated Connecticut farmhouse with her conniving father, Phil Meaney. During one long moonlit night fueled by drink and lust, Josie's softer side is exposed through her feelings for Hogan's landlord Jim Tyrone Spacey, and two implacable souls reveal to each other the grief, longing and unrequited love they've hidden from the world.
