‘Salome’ to open in April in L.A.
Al Pacino, Kevin Anderson and Jessica Chastain will appear in Oscar Wilde’s “Salome,” opening April 27 at the Wadsworth Theatre in L.A.
Based on the biblical tale of lust, betrayal and revenge, the play was developed over a period of two years by Pacino and director Estelle Parsons at the Actors Studio in New York. With original music by Yukio Tsuji, it will be performed as a dramatic staged reading duplicating the 2003 Broadway production.
The play was previously scheduled to make its California bow last April, featuring Pacino and Marisa Tomei, but was canceled by producers, who cited scheduling conflicts.
Tickets for the Wadsworth engagement go on sale March 26.
