The Geffen Playhouse has announced the full cast for its production of Joshua Harmon's Significant Other, directed by Stephen Brackett. Previews for the West Coast premiere will begin April 3 in the Gil Cates Theater at the Geffen Playhouse with opening night on April 11. The production will close May 6.

The cast will feature Melanie Field as Laura; Vella Lovell as Vanessa; Preston Martin as Zach, Evan, and Roger: Keilly McQuail as Kiki; John Garet Stoker as Will, Conrad, and Tony; Concetta Tomei as Helene Berman; and Will Von Vogt as Jordan Berman.

Significant Other follows Jordan, a single, young professional with a close group of female friends who slowly drift away as they each get married while he searches for his own "Mr. Right." The play revels in the paradox of feeling old when you’re still young and the sometimes-crushing loneliness that comes with growing up.

The play premiered off-Broadway in 2015 at the Laura Pels Theatre in a Roundabout Theatre Company production directed by Trip Cullman.
