Synopsis

The first act introduces the audience to Walker and Nan, brother and sister, and best friend Pip, with whom they grew up. The trio attend the reading of the sibling's father's will. Act two is set thirty years past. It explores the relationship between Ned and Theo, fledgling architects, and Theo's girlfriend Lina, and seeks to answer questions raised in the first act

Review

Until this opens you can use this Three Days of Rain search find quite a few reviews of past  productions

Road to Broadway

Three Days of Rain had its world premiere at Costa Mesa's South Coast Rep in 1997 and first New York City production at the Manhattan Theatre Club the same year. Probably the most significant staging was in 1999 at London's Donmar Warehouse. Robin Lefevre directed Colin Firth (Walker & Ned), Elizabeth McGovern (Nan & Lina) and David Morrissey (Pip & Theo)

Three Days had a few very nice runs over the next couple of years, playing major venues in San Diego, San Jose, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Hartford, among others, including a Joanne Woodward directed production at the Westport Country Playhouse. Strangely, after all the acclaim, nothing was heard about the play after 2001. Apparently, every group that wanted to stage it already had. Except a Broadway producer, that is

Finally, the New York Times reported that a Broadway run with Ms Roberts was decided upon after a June 2005 reading in Los Angeles
