MUSIC BOX THEATER

Julianne Moore and Bill Nighy return to the New York stage in the world premiere of a timely drama by David Hare (Stuff Happens). Sam Mendes directs in his first Broadway foray since piloting the Bernadette Peters revival of Gypsy

Nadia Blye (Julianne Moore) is a young American war correspondent turned academic who now teaches Political Studies at Yale. A brief holiday with her boyfriend in the Welsh borders brings her into contact with a kind of Englishman whose culture and beliefs are a surprise and a challenge, both to her and to her relationship. David Hare's new play, about the interconnection between our secret motives and our public politics, seeks to illustrate how life has subtly changed for so many people in the West in the new century

The Vertical Hour marks the first time in playwright David Hare's (Stuff Happens) career that one of his plays will have a world premiere in the U.S.
