CNN to Air Live Broadcast of George Clooney’s ‘Good Night and Good Luck’ In a Broadway First

The play will be broadcast live from the Winter Garden Theater on Broadway.

“It’s also about the importance of the free press and the need for strong news organizations to report the facts in a fair-minded way. The play, which was adapted from the 2005 film, follows journalist Edward R. Murrow, played by Clooney, in his efforts to take down Senator Joseph McCarthy and McCarthyism on air amid concerns from the federal government and CBS station heads. The broadcast will be executive produced by Clooney and Grant Heslov, who co-wrote the Broadway play together, Deena Katz, Todd Wagner, and Jeff Skoll.
