Casting ‘Golden Boy’ for Broadway

NYTimes.com: NINETEEN actors will take their bows when “Golden Boy,” Lincoln Center Theater’s revival of Clifford Odets’s 1937 play, opens Thursday on Broadway at the Belasco Theater. A few, like the Emmy winner Tony Shalhoub of “Monk,” will be familiar faces; many more will be recognizable in that “I know I know him” way that lets character actors both pay the bills and ride the subway in peace. At least two have previous experience with Odets, having worked with the director Bartlett Sher on his acclaimed 2006 revival of “Awake and Sing!”
