Jean Smart (Hacks) moves to extend her recent cultural dominance into relatively uncharted territory for her—the Broadway stage—as a rural Louisiana woman with a secret in this darkly comic one-woman play by the writer, actor and erstwhile CBS News correspondent Jamie Wax. The production will be Smart's first Broadway role since her Tony-nominated turn in the 2000 revival of The Man Who Came to Dinner; prior to that, her only Broadway credit was a brief turn as Marlene Dietrich in the 1981 bioplay Piaf. Sarna Lapine (Sunday in the Park with George) directs the world premiere.
