A Broadway revival of Richard Greenberg’s play Three Days of Rain will feature François Arnaud (Heated Rivalry), David Corenswet (Superman) and Yvonne Strahovski (The Handmaid’s Tale) in a starry production directed by Tony Award winner Anna D. Shapiro (Eureka Day, August: Osage County).
The revival, produced by David Binder (Broadway’s Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Network), will begin performances in February 2027 at a Shubert Theatre to be announced.
“Three Days of Rain is truly one of the most beautiful plays I’ve ever done or experienced,” Shapiro said in a statement. “Steeped in the brilliantly funny and enchantingly complex world of Richard Greenberg, the story follows two generations of New York intelligentsia as they navigate the burden of family, the seduction of art and the necessity of love over time and eternity.”
Creative team, specific dates and more information will be announced shortly.
The synopsis: “Three Days of Rain is a sharply funny drama that unfolds as a mystery about inheritance: what parents leave behind and what children discover years later.” The revival will be produced by David Binder and co-produced by Jayne Baron Sherman. 101 Productions, Ltd. serves as Executive Producer.
The big-name casting continues the play’s tradition as a showcase for top talent. Three Days of Rain made its Off Broadway debut in 1997 with a cast that included Patricia Clarkson, John Slattery and Bradley Whitford, and a famous Broadway premiere in 2006 starred Julia Roberts, Paul Rudd and Bradley Cooper. The play was a finalist for the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
