Roundabout Theatre Company has announced complete casting for The Grief Eater Near North Bender by Dylan Guerra and directed by Dustin Wills. The play runs January 21, 2027-March 21, 2027, with an official opening on February 11, at the Laura Pels Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre.

The cast features Drama Desk Award nominee Kyle Beltran as Angler, Lucille Lortel Award nominee Florencia Lozano as Tomlin, Tony Award nominee Annie McNamara as Maryanne, Marquis Kofi Rodriguez as Noland, Blake Russell as the Shepherd, and Pete Simpson as Byron.

In The Grief Eater Near North Bender, a creature stalks the woods near North Bender and kills the person you love most, erasing them from your memory. A makeshift hunting party made up of a grieving ex, his fiercely loyal sister, and a partner who can’t remember the man he loved forms to track it down before it feeds again.

The rest of the creative team will be announced at a later date.
