Stephen Kunken Joins Enron
Drama League and Outer Critics Circle nominee STEPHEN KUNKEN, best known for his celebrated portrayal of James Reston in Frost/Nixon on Broadway, will assume the mantle of a particularly less honorable historical figure when he takes on the role of disgraced ENRON Chief Financial Officer Andy Fastow in Lucy Prebble’s critically acclaimed play ENRON.
ENRON will begin previews on Broadway on April 8, 2010 at The Broadhurst Theatre (235 W. 44th St. between 8th and Broadway), in preparation for an April 27, 2010 opening.
