Betsy Aidem, Guy Boyd and David Greenspan will be among the performers joining the previously announced Billy Crudup in Adam Rapp's The Metal Children at the Vineyard Theatre, which will begin performances on May 4 in anticipation of an official opening on May 19. Rapp will direct his script.

The play is about a New York writer (played by Crudup), and his explosive encounter with a small American town that he travels to in order to defend one of his young adult novels, which has been banned by the local school board.

The company will also feature Connor Barrett, Susan Blommaert, Halley Wegryn Gross, Jessy Hodges, and Phoebe Strole.
