The Stephen Sondhem-Burt Shevelove-Larry Gelbart musical will run from November 13-December 13 under Stone's direction, after an original 2010 mounting at Williamstown Theatre Festival. With choreography by Denis Jones (Honeymoon in Vegas), the production stars Stone's husband, Tony nominee Christopher Fitzgerald (An Act of God), who reprises his role as Pseudolus from the Williamstown staging.
