Harvey
Fierstein's newest theater project, A Catered
Affair, will begin previews March 25, 2008, at the
Walter Kerr Theatre in New York City. Directed by John
Doyle and scored by John Bucchino, A Catered
Affair is an adaptation of the Paddy Chayevsky
teleplay The Catered Affair. It was later
adapted as a 1956 MGM film starring Bette
Davis, Ernest Borgnine, Barry Fitzgerald, and Debbie
Reynolds. Why the slight change in title? "That title
always struck me as wrong," Fierstein told Reuters in
a report Tuesday. "It's much more about a
catered affair, one personal wedding party which is
the catalyst for everything which follows."
Previews in New
York will follow a run in San Diego at the Old Globe
Theatre in September. (The Advocate)
