NEW YORK (AP) — Director Ethan Coen (photo) is returning to off-Broadway with Offices, a new collection of one-act plays at the Atlantic Theater Company.
Coen scored a success last season at the Atlantic with Almost an Evening, another trio of one acts. Says the director, “It was a good experience, so I’m going to try and repeat it.”
Offices, which takes place in offices or places of business, will open May 7 with preview performances beginning April 15. The cast will include F. Murray Abraham, John Bedford Lloyd and Mary McCann. The director is Neil Pepe, artistic head of the Atlantic.
With his brother Joel, Coen has made more than a dozen movies including No Country for Old Men and Fargo, Raising Arizona, Barton Fink and The Hudsucker Proxy.
