The new Samuel D. Hunter play Grangeville opened February 24 at the Pershing Square Signature Center, produced by Signature Theatre. And stage and screen stars were on hand to celebrate the new play, which stars Paul Sparks and Brian J. Smith. See photos from opening night below, which included appearances from film director Darren Aronofsky, Pulitzer-winning playwright Martyna Majok, and Broadway stars Celia Keenan-Bolger and Steven Pasquale.
The two-hander play is set in a small town in Idaho. It follows two half-brothers who tentatively reconnect over the care of their ailing mother. Sparks plays the older Jerry, who still lives in Grangeville, while Smith plays Arnold, an artist now living in Rotterdam, drawn back into his past. Grangeville runs until March 23.
