Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe will return to Broadway later this season when the recent West End production of
The Cripple of Inishmaan comes to the Cort Theatre on Broadway in April. The production will start previews on April 12 with an expected April 20 opening.
Written by Martin McDonagh (who has been represented on Broadway with plays such as
The Beauty Queen of Leenane and
The Pillowman),
The Cripple of Inishmaan has been performed Off-Broadway twice. This will be the play's first time on Broadway.
Though he continues to be best known for the title role in the
Harry Potter movies, Daniel Radcliffe is already a Broadway veteran, having starred in revivals of the drama
Equus and the musical
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.
