Jim Parsons To Do “Merton” Play
Jim Parsons — you know, Sheldon on that sitcom — took to Broadway in 2012 in the Roundabout Theatre Company’s production of “Harvey,” and now he’s taking on another role for the company: He’ll play the title role in a benefit reading of George S. Kaufman and Marc Connelly’s “Merton of the Movies” Dec. 1 at Studio 54. Aren’t familiar with the play? Neither am I — and it’s my job to know these things! Parsons explains here.
