Full Casting Announced For Uk Première Of I’M GONNA MARRY YOU TOBEY MAGUIRE
Spidey is heading to Europe! The full casting for the UK première of Samantha Hurley’s I’m Gonna Marry You Tobey Maguire Has been announced. Following its sold-out run in NYC at Nancy Manocherian’s the cell theatre, I’m Gonna Marry You Tobey Maguire opens at Southwark Playhouse Borough on July, 3rd with previews from June 28th , running until August 10th.
Tyler Struble directs Kyle Birch (Brenda Dee Cankles) and Anders Hayward (Tobey Maguire) alongside the previously announced Tessa Albertson (Shelby Hinkley).
I’m Gonna Marry You Tobey Maguire is Samantha Hurley’s debut play. Her original works have been performed at the UCB theatre, Nancy Manocherian's the cell theatre, Characters Welcome, PIT and Brooklyn Comedy Collective.
To cope with the absence of her father, neglect of her mother, and ridicule by her classmates, eighth grader Shelby Hinkley has put all of her time and energy into the only thing that matters in 2004: Spiderman. When leading a devout online fan club proves insufficient to her needs, Shelby decides to risk it all for love, kidnap famous actor Tobey Maguire, and marry him in her basement. Her fantasies of happily ever after start to crumble as she realizes Tobey may not be the charismatic, heartthrob actor she thinks she knows.
A Y2K farce, I’m Gonna Marry You Tobey Maguire is a full-throttle explosion of our para-social relationships and the obsessions that detonate them.
