Left on Tenth, Delia Ephron's new play based on her best-selling memoir, has announced dates, a theater and additional casting. The comedy-drama begins previews on Sept. 26 at the James Earl Jones Theater prior to an Oct. 23 opening. Joining previously announced Julianna Margulies and Peter Gallagher will be Obie winner Peter Francis James (
Funny Girl, Hillary and Clinton) and Kate MacCluggage (
The 39 Steps). Five-time Tony winner Susan Stroman (
The Producers, Contact) will direct.
“Working on Left on Tenth has been a thrilling journey, collaborating with the incomparable Delia Ephron and bringing her story to life with the extraordinary talents of Julianna Margulies and Peter Gallagher,” said Stroman. “It's an experience that seamlessly blends the magic of her storytelling with the brilliance of these actors.”
Left on Tenth is a romantic comedy about second chances in life and love. When she least expects it, Delia, beloved novelist and screenwriter of You’ve Got Mail, makes a surprising connection with a man from her past and falls into her own romantic comedy. What starts with an unlikely spark blossoms into a love story that seems to defy all odds in the face of life’s challenges. Left on Tenth celebrates the messy, beautiful true story of two people with the courage to open their hearts again.

In May-June 2025, CSC will co-present with NAATCO and Transport Group, a revival of William Inge's 1955 Bus Stop about a group of strangers stranded in a Midwestern diner during a snowstorm, with an all-Asian cast. The 1955 production starred Kim Stanley and Elaine Stritch. Marilyn Monroe and Don Murray headlined the 1956 film version. The last Broadway revival was in 1996 and starred Billy Crudup and Mary-Louise Parker.
