Hoffman to Direct in Coming LABryinth Theater Season

By LARRY ROHTER

The Academy Award winner Philip Seymour Hoffman's return to the director's chair is one of the highlights of the 2012-2013 season of the LAByrinth Theater Company, announced Wednesday. Mr. Hoffman, who won the Oscar for best actor for his performance in “Capote,” will direct “A Family for All Occasions,” a new comedy by Bob Glaudini, in the spring of 2013 for LAByrinth, with which he has been associated since the mid 1990s.

Also on the schedule is a new play by Stephen Adly Guirgis, one of LAByrinth's artistic co-directors, scheduled for the summer of 2013. Mr. Guirgis's previous work includes “The ____________ With the Hat,” nominated for several Tony Awards, and “The Last Days of Judas Iscariot.” LAByrinth's season begins with another new play, “Radiance,” written by Cusi Cram and directed by Suzanne Agins. All three productions will be performed at the Bank Street Theater.
