(October 6 2008)—Actor Matthew Broderick returns to Broadway next spring in a revival of the comedy “The Philanthropist” by playwright Christopher Hampton.

The Roundabout Theatre Company production, directed by David Grindley, will open April 26, 2009, at the American Airlines Theatre, Todd Haimes, the Roundabout's artistic director, announced Monday and will begin preview performances April 10.

Broderick, in his first Broadway appearance since the 2005 revival of "The Odd Couple," portrays Philip, an insular college professor.

"The Philanthropist" had a 64-performance run on Broadway in 1971 in a production that featured Alec McCowen, Jane Asher and Victor Spinetti.
