When he arrives, he is shocked to discover that his father, the former artistic director, has lost a step and that the once-respected theater, now run by his brother Jon (Tenney) and his wife (Linney) has become, by necessity, a low-rent dinner theater serving roast beef and murder mysteries. Richard decides to save the theater, the town and the world by mounting an American classic at the theater.<\/p>\n

\n\tLinney\u2019s character, Kristen Forrest Bean, who fell in love with Richard when she was 19 and ran off with him to make it in New York.

\n\tLinney has won four Emmys, most recently for her starring role in Showtime\u2019s The Big C<\/em> in 2013. She was nominated three times for her role on Netflix\u2019s Ozark<\/em>.
