Jessica Chastain is set to return to Broadway this spring in a new play titled “Lost Lear.” The Oscar winner and Tony nominee will star alongside Corey Stoll and Michael Urie in the limited engagement at the Booth Theatre.
“Lost Lear” is described as a meta take on Shakespeare’s “King Lear.” This marks Chastain’s first appearance in a new production since her acclaimed 2023 revival of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House.” The play is scheduled to begin its 16-week run on Monday, March 29, 2027, with the opening night to be announced.
