Marvin's Room

Broadway
Play
Original
Roundabout Theatre Company brings Scott McPherson’s award-winning Marvin’s Room to Broadway for the first time after its 1991 Off-Broadway production and Academy Award-nominated 1996 screen adaptation that starred Meryl Streep, Diane Keaton, Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro. McPherson’s poignant and wildly funny play is about the laughter that can shine through life’s darkest moments.

SYNOPSIS:

Lee and Bessie could not be more different and, though sisters, have not seen each other for almost two decades. During that time Lee has been raising two challenging boys on her own. Bessie has been caring for their father, along with his soap opera-obsessed sister.

Now the two are thrown together as Bessie has just been diagnosed with leukemia and needs a bone marrow transplant. Marvin’s Room is real, hopeful, compassionate, and absurdly funny—don’t miss it.

  • Running Time: 2 hours and 15 minutes, including one 15 minute intermission
