Jeffrey Wright may star in new Neil LaBute play
CVK
Playbill reports that Jeffrey Wright is in talks to star alongside Ben Stiller in Neil LaBute’s new play, “This Is How It Goes” at New York’s Public Theater from March 8 to April 10:
In “This Is How It Goes,” LaBute trains his eye on a small town in America for what is billed as a “new tale of manipulation, exploitation, race and infidelity,” through “the story of an interracial love triangle.”
Wright recently won an Emmy for his role in the HBO mini-series “Angels in America.” He has also starred on Broadway in the Tony-winning production of “Topdog/Underdog,” and in Central Park in “Julius Caesar.” Wright’s breakthrough role came in 1996 when he starred as the troubled artist in “Basquiat.”

Jeffrey Wright is quite possibly the greatest, and I must admit he is the reason why Iam still studying theatre. He’s the only role-model I have that inspires me each time I see him perform. I can’t wait to meet him, so I can tell him thank you.
