I think I might actually have reviewed this site somewhere else, but as she was mentioned in a recent Ontario press release, I checked out the wikipedia page for Piper Perabo trying to remember whether she'd played a police officer in the play I saw in preview on my last trip to New York.
Looking up the play, however, I saw that it had in fact premiered before the on-Broadway run I'd seen at the Lycaeum theatre. And in its original cast? Nick Sobotka (Pablo Schreier) and Kim Pine (Alison Pill)!
Woulda been cool to see them onstage. Of course, at that point I had seen neither The Wire nor In Treatment or Scott Pilgrim, and so I wouldn't have been confronted with baggage associated with their roles. Either way, that play was pretty darned good.
Piper, of course, I knew from other work, but her character didn't ring of her Lost and Delirious role, which is cool. (She co-starred with Jessica Paré -- now a big part of Mad Men -- and, to an extent, Jackie Burroughs in that movie, which was awesome.)
