The cast for the Broadway production of Margaret Edson’s Wit met the press at Manhattan Theatre Club’s rehearsal space on Tuesday, December 13.

The production will play MTC’s Samuel J. Friedman Theatre, January 5-March 11, with an opening on January 26. Lynne Meadow will direct.

Wit follows brilliant and exacting poetry professor Vivian Bearing as she undergoes experimental treatment for cancer. A scholar who devoted her life to academia, she must now face the irony and injustice of becoming the subject of research.

Cynthia Nixon will star as Vivian Bearing, and be joined by Pun Bandhu (Technician), Suzanne Bertish (E.M. Ashford), Michael Countryman (Harvey Kelekian/Mr. Bearing), Jessica Dickey (Technician), Chiké Johnson (Technician), Greg Keller (Jason Posner), Carra Patterson (Susie Monahan), and Zachary Spicer (Technician).
