New York Theatre Workshop will present Michael Weller’s Beast beginning Aug. 29.

Directed by Jo Bonney, the new work will officially open Sept. 15 and run through Oct. 12. The cast will feature Raul Aranas, Jeremy Bobb, Lisa Joyce, Logan Marshall-Green, Larry Pine, Eileen Rivera, and Corey Stoll.

In Beast, press notes state, “a blood-red comic road adventure, two Iraqi War veterans (Logan Marshall-Green and Corey Stoll) — badly mutilated but as fiercely patriotic as ever — make their way home from a military hospital in Germany. Their marauding adventure across America takes them to Crawford, Texas, where they meet up with their Commander-in-Chief (Larry Pine) and offer a surefire solution to all his problems.”

The production will feature scenic design by Eugene Lee, costume design by Colleen Werthmann, lighting design by David Lander, sound design by David Van Tieghem, video design by Tal Yarden and make-up and effects design by Nathan Johnson.

Weller is also the author of Moonchildren, Fishing, Loose Ends, Spoils of War and What the Night is For as well as the films “Hair,” “Ragtime” and “Lost Angels.”

Show times will be Tuesday at 7 PM, Wednesday-Saturday at 8 PM, Sunday at 7 PM with matinees Saturday at 3 PM and Sunday at 2 PM.

New York Theatre Workshop is located in Manhattan at 79 East 4th Street, between Second Avenue and Bowery. Tickets, which are priced $65, will go on sale July 29 by calling (212) 239-6200 or by visiting www.telecharge.com.

Logan attended the opening night of the Off-Broadway play, The Marriage of Bette and Boo this evening. There’s a handful of images from the event in the gallery right now, but I will definitely be adding more as I find them.

Hey guys, I just finished adding some photos of Logan on the set of Richard Gere’s new film, “Brooklyn’s Finest”. It looks like Logan is playing a cop, though that’s about all I know about the role. Hopefully there will be more information on this soon. Anyway, enjoy the photos.

From TheatreMania:

Anna Camp, Austin Lysy, Logan Marshall-Green, and Piper Perabo will star in MCC Theater’s reading of The Shape of Things, under the direction of Carolyn Cantor, tonight, Monday, June 23 at 7pm. The previously announced Paul Rudd will no longer be participating due to a last-minute schedule change.

Presented in conjunction with MCC’s current production of reasons to be pretty — which will transfer to Broadway in the fall — The Shape of Things is a modern version of Adam’s seduction by Eve.

Tickets to the reading are $20 each and can be ordered by calling 212-279-4200 or visiting www.mcctheater.org.

There was not an alert whatsoever about Logan participating in Angels In Progress: Old School At The New School, and I didn’t find out that he participated until tonight so I apologise to anyone who would have liked to attend the event. There are no actual photos from the play (that I can find at least), but here’s the info on it from the NakedAngels website:
