Mad House description
David Harbour and Bill Pullman will star in the world première of Theresa Rebeck's Mad House, a play that’s both dark and funny. It’s on at the Ambassadors Theatre from 26th June to 4th September, another marvellous piece from Rebeck, a prolific and hugely popular writer of books and TV series as well as brilliant theatre work. As she said, "There are those projects when the stars simply align, and to see David and Bill together on stage is beyond my wildest dreams. I'm very much looking forward to being back in the rehearsal room with Moritz as we bring the play to production here in London."
What's the story of Mad House?
The scene is Michael’s dad’s house in rural Pennsylvania, where his father Daniel lies dying. While Michael cares for his father his brother and sister, Ned and Pam, turn up. Their focus is very different. They’re obsessed with how much money will be left in the Will, obviously keen to get their hands on all of it. The resulting drama is blackly amusing, just as entertaining as the rest of Rebeck’s work. What a treat.
Who is starring in Mad House?
David Harbour plays Michael. As Harbour says, he’s "So excited to return to the London stage with Theresa's blistering new dark comedy. It features two of my favourite things: the abyss of madness that lies at the pit of every family as they stare blankly, incomprehensively into the nature of our fleeting existence, and real estate." Harbour’s theatre work includes Cal in Camo, Glengarry Glen Ross, Romeo and Juliet, The Merchant of Venice and many more wonderful plays.
The stage and screen veteran Bill Pullman returns to theatreland to play Daniel. His previous stage work includes All My Sons, The Other Place, Oleanna, and The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia?
Who is on the Mad House creative team?
The play is directed by Moritz von Stuelpnagel. The creative team is to be announced.
