[November 12, 2010]  NEW YORK (AP) -- Maggie Lacey and Edward Hibbert will join Olympia Dukakis in a New York City production of Tennessee Williams' "The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore."

The Roundabout Theatre Company says previews will begin Jan. 7 at its off-Broadway venue, the Laura Pels Theatre, with an opening on Jan. 30. Next year is the centennial celebration of Williams' birthday.

The play centers on a wealthy American widow who retreats to Italy in order to write her memoirs when a handsome and mysterious young visitor arrives.

The other actors include Curtis Billings, Elisa Bocanegra and Darren Pettie.

This production of Williams' play is directed by Michael Wilson and premiered in May 2008 at Hartford Stage.
