“Donuts” To Be Served On B’way
“Superior Donuts,” a small-scale 2008 workplace play by Pulitzer Prize winner Tracy Letts, is expected to open for business on Broadway in fall 2009. The play was produced by Steppenwolf Theatre Company — the same Chicago theatre that first gave life to Letts’ acclaimed Broadway play “August: Osage County” — and premiered to mixed reviews in summer 2008 at Steppenwolf’s Downstairs Theatre, the same venue where eventual Pulitzer Prize winner and Tony Award winner “August” was born a year earlier. “Donuts” starred Michael McKean (pictured), who is expected to reprise his role on Broadway.
