Offering additional evidence that Broadway is likely to remain closed for the rest of the year, producers for Tracy Letts' "The Minutes" and a revival of David Mamet's "American Buffalo" announced Thursday that both shows will not open until next spring.
"The Minutes," Letts' comedy about the goings-on at a city council meeting, will start previews the week of March 1 leading to its official opening on March 15. "American Buffalo," Mamet's play about a trio of small-time hustlers and a Buffalo nickel that may be extremely valuable, will begin previews the week of March 22 and open on April 14 at Circle in the Square Theatre.
Both shows had been scheduled to open on the same dates this past spring before Broadway was shut down on March 12 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Letts and Armie Hammer appeared in previews earlier this year in "The Minutes." Laurence Fishburne, Sam Rockwell and Darren Criss were set to star in "Buffalo." Cast confirmations have not been announced for the new dates.
