Squibb, an Oscar nominee for her 2013 performance in Nebraska, was last seen on Broadway as Joe in Waitress, but has Broadway credits dating all the way back to the 1959 original Broadway run of Gypsy, during which she was a replacement Electra. She’s also been on the Main Stem in The Happy Time, Gorey Stories, and Sacrilege.
Anne Kauffman, who directed the Playwrights staging, is back to
direct its Broadway bow. Second Stage’s production also features scenic
design by Lee Jellinek, costume design by Márion Talán de la Rosa,
lighting design by Ben Stanton, and sound design and original music by
Daniel Kluger.
