Producer Scott Rudin has axed the Broadway run of the hit play after falling out with its writer, Bruce Norris, according to reports
The producer of Clybourne Park has cancelled the play's run on Broadway after falling out with its writer, Bruce Norris, according to the New York Post.
Norris was due to appear in an acting role in producer Scott Rudin's HBO adaptation of Jonathan Franzen's book The Corrections, but is reported to have pulled out on Monday after three months of contractual wrangling, saying: "I don't like to do pilots."
Rudin, regarded as the most powerful producer on Broadway, then axed Clybourne Park, which was due to reach Broadway in the spring, as well as two other Norris plays he was planning to produce in 2013.
The theatre is not accepting ticket bookings, while the play's publicists, Boneau/Bryan-Brown, said they were no longer representing the show.
