Based on Paul Mazursky’s 1969 movie that starred Elliott Gould, Natalie Wood, Dyan Cannon and Robert Culp, it’s about two couples and the sexual revolution.
Duncan Sheik’s musical adaptation will play Feb. 4-Mar. 15 at the Pershing Square Signature Theater in New York. Zegen will play Ted, Gould’s role in the film.
The show is not Zegen’s first off-Broadway experience. He starred in the original production of the comedy “Bad Jews” in 2014. On screen, he’ll star opposite Drew Barrymore and Ellie Kemper in the movie “The Stand In,” about an actress who trades places with her set double. It hits theaters Jan. 1.
