Daddy Long Legs, Mamma Mia!, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star Rob Hancock has joined the company of Off-Broadway's upcoming Deadly Stages, a new play set to begin performances at Theatre Row's Stage 5 February 16 ahead of a February 25 opening night. The run will continue through March 16.

Penned by Marc Castle and Mark Finley, the work is a loving homage to backstage murder mysteries of the '40s and '50s. The story follows a Broadway star named Veronica Traymore as she prepares to headline a play, only for murder to threaten those plans. Finley is directing.

As previously announced, Castle will star as Veronica, with Tom Galantich as Marvin, Fritz, and Collucci; David Leeper as Anthony Arlo and others; Dani Marcus as Phoebe and Connie; and Ellen Reilly as Dooney, Barbara, and Rita. Hancock will be playing Graham and Wade. Understudies Jonas Cohen and Sarah Ellis round out the company. Casting is by Karie Koppel of Koppel Casting.

The production will feature set and costume design by Court Watson, lighting design by Zach Pizza, original music and sound design by Morry Campbell, and video design and direction by Leeper. Ruth E. Kramer will be production stage manager, with Rebecca Nichols serving as general manager.
