by Broadway.com Staff • Feb 2, 2009
Tickets are now available for Eugene Ionesco's Exit the King, starring Geoffrey Rush and Susan Sarandon. The Broadway revival of the absurdist comedy will also feature Lauren Ambrose, Andrea Martin and William Sadler. Rush co-wrote a new translation with Neil Armfield, who will also direct. Previews begin at the Barrymore Theatre on March 7, with opening night set for March 26.
Written in 1962, Exit the King follows the slow death of a monarch whose reign has outlasted both its welcome and its allotted time. The play premiered at the Lyceum Theatre in 1968, where it played 47 performances. Exit the King was filmed twice for French television, in 1978 and in 2006. In 2007, the Australian theater troupe Company B mounted productions in Sydney and Melbourne, both helmed by Armfield and starring Rush.
This limited engagement is set to play through June 14.
