David Lansbury to Replace Craig Bierko in HARRY TOWNSEND'S LAST STAND

Harry Townsend's Last Stand a new play written by George Eastman (The Snow Job; Bitter Exchange) and directed by Karen Carpenter (Love, Loss and What I Wore; Handle With Care) has announced that beginning Monday, March 9, Tony® Award winner Len Cariou will be joined by David Lansbury (Broadway: War Horse, Hedda Gabler, The Heidi Chronicles; Michael Clayton; "Oz" on HBO). Lansbury replaces Craig Bierko in the role of Harry Townsend's son, Alan.

Harry Townsend's Last Stand plays at New York City Center Stage II (131 W. 55th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues), and is produced by Dennis Grimaldi (A Gentlemen's Guide...; Love Letters, Angels in America, Other People's Money).

Meet Harry Townsend, an incurable romantic and irascible charmer whose sharp mind and dry wit is at the center of this new comedy. As his prodigal son Alan returns home, the visit raises the complexities of their relationship, placing father and son at odds. Harry Townsend's Last Stand is a must-see new play about the inescapable ups and downs of family.

"Len Cariou and the whole Harry Townsend's Last Stand family are thrilled to welcome David Lansbury to our cast," said Dennis Grimaldi. "The audience response to this play has been inspiring and we are pleased that more people will now get a chance to see this hilarious and moving play."
