"Boeing-Boeing" Comes To Broadway

Be prepared for a set with a lot of doors.

One of the biggest hits in London last year was a revival of "Boeing-Boeing," Marc Camoletti's 1960s farce about a man juggling affairs with three airline stewardesses of different nationalities.

Now the play, with one of its London stars, Mark Rylance, and director Matthew Warchus, is slated for Broadway, opening May 4 at the newly refurbished Longacre Theatre.

Preview performances begin April 19.

Also in the cast are Bradley Whitford, best known for his role as a presidential aide on "The West Wing," and Christine Baranski, who has appeared on Broadway in such plays as "The Real Thing" and "Rumors," and on television in "Cybill."

You might even know the play from its 1965 film version, which starred Tony Curtis, Jerry Lewis and Thelma Ritter.
