Notes from James:

I don't know about you but I sure am excited to see this one. Not only is it one of the greatest plays of all time but is stars Tony winner Scarlet Johannson. That's right. I said Tony winner. I bet you forgot  that didn't you? I'm sure she didn't. The show which is one of Tennessee William's most popular plays began previews at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on December 18 with opening set for January 17, 2013. The show will play it's final performance on March 30. The cast also features Benjamin Walker as Brick, Ciaran Hinds as Big Daddy and Debra Monk as Big Momma. Direction is by Tony winner Rob Ashford who is primarily know as the director of shows such as How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying and Promises, Promises. Although he has directed several high profile plays in London this production of Cat On A Hot Tin Roof will mark his directorial play debut on Broadway. I for one can't wait. For those of you who want to see the show good seats are now available. Get your tickets to see Cat On A Hot Tin Roof on Broadway. Expect this show to be a big contender at this year's Tony Awards.
