Broadway's currently running National Theatre revival of Tony Kushner's Angels in America has extended its run for an additional two weeks, through July 15. Originally announced as an 18-week limited engagement, Angels in America began previews on February 23, and opened on March 25 at the Neil Simon Theatre.

Directed by two-time Tony Award winner Marianne Elliott, Angels in America stars Academy Award and Tony Award nominee Andrew Garfield and two-time Tony Award winner Nathan Lane. The company also features Susan Brown, Denise Gough, Amanda Lawrence, James McArdle, Lee Pace, Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, Beth Malone, Patrick Andrews, Glynis Bell, Amy Blackman, Curt James, Rowan Ian Seamus Magee, Mark Nelson, Matty Oaks, Genesis Oliver, Jane Pfitsch, Lee Aaron Rosen, Ron Todorowski, Silvia Vrskova, and Lucy York.

The design team includes Ian MacNeil (scenic design), Nicky Gillibrand (costume design), Paule Constable (lighting design), Adrian Sutton (music), Ian Dickinson (sound design), Nick Barnes and Finn Caldwell (puppetry designers), Finn Caldwell (puppetry director and movement), Robby Graham (movement), and Chris Fisher (illusions).

Returning to Broadway for the first time since its original 1993 production, Elliott's revival had its world premiere earlier this year in a sold-out run at the National Theatre.
