QUICK TAKES - Feb. 10, 2009
The Mark Taper Forum has scrapped plans to present “Uncle Vanya” this season and will replace it with a production of David Mamet’s “Oleanna.” Bill Pullman and Julia Stiles will star in the story of a university professor and one of his students.
“Uncle Vanya” fell apart after its anticipated star, Alfred Molina, dropped out.
Tony-winning director Doug Hughes will stage “Oleanna,” which is scheduled to run May 28 to July 12, with a June 5 opening.
