Michael Griffo's Pen Pals, which officially opened its Off-Broadway run at St. Clement's Theatre December 11 after beginning previews December 5, has added some new faces to its rotating cast. Directed by SuzAnne Barabas, a portion of proceeds from the production go to the breast cancer non-profit Susan G. Komen.

Kate Burton, Ellen McLaughlin, and Gail Winar will join the cast of the two-person play. 

A rotating roster of stage and screen stars perform the work over its run. Johanna Day and Nancy McKeon, who continue through December 22, kicked off the engagement and will subsequently return February 5-9, 2025, to close out the run. They will be followed by Catherine Curtin and Sharon Lawrence (December 26-29); Nia Vardalos and Winar (January 2-12, 2025); Mary Beth Peil and McLaughin (January 15-26), and Pauletta Washington and Burton (January 29-February 2).

The work follows Bernie and Mags, two women living in different countries who are best friends despite having never met, thanks to a 50-year pen-pal relationship. The play made its world premiere in October at New Jersey Repertory Company. McKeon and Barabas are reprising their work from that run.

Also reprising their work from the New Jersey run are set designer Jessica Parks, lighting designer Jill Nagle, and sound designer Nick Simone. The Off-Broadway bow features costume design by David C. Wollard, with Rose Riccardi serving as production stage manager.

Shacket is producing with Anthony Hazzard and Scott Stolzenberg in association with NJ Repertory Company. Logan DeWitt is associate producer.
