Following a successful 2015 run off-Broadway with Manhattan Theatre Club, Heisenberg opens tonight on Broadway at MTC's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre. The new play by Simon Stephens stars Tony winner Mary-Louise Parker and Denis Arndt, who is making his Broadway debut.

This two-hander follows Georgie Burns (Parker), a middle-aged woman who meets elderly butcher Alex Priest (Arndt) in a busy London train station after she randomly decides to kiss him on the back of the neck. They quickly begin a May-December romance.

The Broadway production has retained most of the off-Broadway creative team: Direction is by Drama Desk winner Mark Brokaw, with choreography by Sam Pinkleton. The show features costumes by Michael Krass, set by Mark Wendland, and sound by David Van Tieghem. Austin R. Smith (who did not work on the off-Broadway run) makes his Broadway debut as the lighting designer.
