Mia Farrow and Patti LuPone star in Jen Silverman's Broadway play 'The Roommate,' which explores the lives of two middle-aged women who become unlikely roommates. The production opened on September 12, but Farrow had to withdraw shortly after due to a positive COVID test, leading to the cancellation of two shows. Marsha Mason, who is also the associate director, stepped in as Farrow's replacement during the Sunday matinee, receiving a standing ovation for her performance. The play, directed by Jack O'Brien, has been praised for its exploration of friendship and reinvention, although some reviews noted that the dialogue lacked ambition. The production is set to run until December 15, with ticket lotteries available for audiences. The Broadway community showed strong support for the opening night, celebrating the return of these two iconic actresses to the stage.
