Roundabout Theatre Company (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director), in association with Marc Platt, is proud to present Tony® & Emmy Award winner and Academy Award nominated Stockard Channing (Vera Simpson), Matthew Risch* (Joey Evans) and Tony® & Emmy nominated Martha Plimpton (Gladys Bumps) starring in a new Broadway production of PAL JOEY, with music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Lorenz Hart.

Joey abandons his wholesome girlfriend Linda English, to charm a rich, married older woman, Vera Simpson, in the hope that she'll set him up in business.

Christian Hoff has had to withdraw from the production. Matthew Risch
will replace Mr. Hoff in the role of Joey Evans. Read more >>
