George Clooney is, evidently, the attraction of this production, based on the film’s script, directed by David Cromer and for which the rest of the cast has not yet been announced. On this occasion the actor will play Edward R. Murrow (in the film he played Fred Friendlyand David Strathairn to Murrow), the CBS television journalist who, in 1954, broadcast a devastating report on the senator Joseph McCarthy, author of the so-called ‘witch hunt’. The film is set a year earlier, and narrates the confrontation that Murrow and his producer Fred Friendly had against McCarthy in defense of independent journalism.
‘Good night, and good luck’ got six Oscar nominationsincluding best director for George Clooney himself, and also best film and best script. The theatrical adaptation is announced with a limited period of performances, since the curtain will fall, if there is no extension, on June 7.
