Borrowed Time, which opened our
2013 season. This rarely-produced
American masterpiece is a magical
fantasy about the love between
a little boy and his Gramps.
When Death himself pays them a

Mr. Brink, Gramps outwits him—
trapping Brink in a tree and refusing
to let him down. Confirmed
cast members to date include:
Blair Brown, Michael Cumpsty, Bill
Irwin, Bebe Neuwirth, Phillipa Soo,
Steven Skybell and Sam Waterston.
Oakes Fegley will reprise his
Two River debut as Pud, the role
which launched Joel Grey’s theatrical
career at the Cleveland Playhouse
as a nine-year-old boy.
