J.J. Abrams and Kevin McCollum: Right about “The Play That Goes Wrong!”
Bringing a British farce to Broadway was a good move for famed film and TV director J.J. Abrams. Teaming up with acclaimed co-producer Kevin McCollum, who won Tony Awards for “Rent,” “Avenue Q” and “In the Heights,” proved another smart decision.
FOX’s Jane Metzler talks with J.J.Abrams about “The Play That Goes Wrong,” his first Broadway production, which has more than exceeded expectations. Jane also sits down with Kevin McCollum and two of the hit comedy’s new stars: Broadway veterans Akron Watson and Ashley Bryant. They share their feelings about joining the cast of this physically-challenging show, where things intentionally go very wrong. They also recall embarrassing moments in their stage careers when a performance did not go according to plan.
