Classic Stage Company has announced full casting for its upcoming production of Ivan Turgenev’s A Month in the Country, beginning performances January 9 at CSC for a limited engagement through February 22. Opening night is set for January 29. Erica Schmidt directs.

As previously announced, Emmy Award nominees Peter Dinklage (HBO's Game of Thrones) and Taylor Schilling (Netflix's Orange Is the New Black) will star as Rakitin and Natalya in a play about the turmoil that befalls an otherwise quiet country estate when a handsome young tutor arrives to teach Natalya Petrovna's young son. When Natalya becomes interested in tutelage of another kind, she creates an uncomfortable situation for her husband and her long-suffering friend, Rakitin, who is secretly smitten with her.

Newly announced cast members include Emmy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner Anthony Edwards (ER), Annabella Sciorra (The Sopranos), and Tony Award winner Elizabeth Franz (Death of a Salesman). The cast will also feature Peter Appel, Ian Etheridge, Mike Faist, James Joseph O’Neil, Elizabeth Ramos, Thomas Jay Ryan, Frank Van Putten, and Megan West.
