Zachary Quinto to make Broadway debut in Tennessee classic

Zachary Quinto is set to make his Broadway debut in a revival of Tennesse Williams' classic play The Glass Menagerie.

As fans await the launch of the new Star Trek sequel, in which Quinto will reprise his young Mr. Spock character, he has announced he will be treading the boards on the Great White Way for the first time from 5 September (13).

The four-piece play, which will run for 17 weeks, will co-star Amanda Wingfield, Brian J. Smith and Celia Keenan-Bolger, and has already received rave reviews during a stint in Cambridge, Massachusetts earlier this year (13).

The Glass Menagerie last appeared on Broadway in 2005 and starred Jessica Lange and Christian Slater.
