In Boeing-Boeing, an architect living in Paris (Bradley Whitford) has been successfully juggling three flight attendant fiancées with his housekeeper (Christine Baranski) reluctantly playing romantic air-traffic controller as they fly in and out of his swank bachelor pad. But when an old school pal (Mark Rylance) visits, things get rather turbulent. Schedules change, flights are delayed and chaos ensues in this whirl of mayhem and matchmaking.
Boeing-Boeing features a design by Rob Howell, lighting by Hugh Vanstone, original music by Claire Van Kampen, sound by Simon Baker and curtain call by Bruno Tonioli (“Dancing with the Stars,” “Dance Wars: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann"). CAST BIOGRAPHIES * Christine Baranski won a SAG Award, an Emmy Award and three additional Emmy nominations for her work on the hit series “Cybill” and shared two SAG Awards for the films Chicago and The Birdcage. On Broadway, she is the winner of two Tony Awards: for Tom Stoppard’s The Real Thing and Neil Simon’s Rumors. Boeing-Boeing marks her first Broadway appearance in 17 years. She stars opposite Meryl Streep in this summer’s highly anticipated film of the smash musical Mamma Mia! * Mark Rylance makes his Broadway debut in Boeing-Boeing, reprising the performance that in London was called “the comic performance of a lifetime” (The Evening Standard) and earned him Best Actor nominations from both the Olivier and Evening Standard Awards. He served as Artistic Director of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre for 10 years where he appeared in the title roles of Henry V and Hamlet as well as Cleopatra in Antony and Cleopatra and Olivia in Twelfth Night. In the West End he won an Olivier Award as Best Actor for Benedict in Much Ado about Nothing directed by Matthew Warchus.
