'Game of Thrones' star Peter Dinklage and 'Orange Is the New Black' star Taylor Schilling are teaming up for an off-Broadway adaptation of Ivan Turgenev's play 'A Month in the Country'.
The comedy, first performed in 1872, will be produced off-Broadway at Classic Stage Company, directed by Dinklage's wife, Erica Schmidt, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The play begins performances January 9 at the East Village venue, in a limited engagement scheduled through February 15.
Schilling will play the role of Natalya, the bored wife of an older landowner, who is the object of unrequited love from her long-suffering friend Mikhail Rakitin, to be played by Dinklage.
Both Dinklage and Schilling are nominated at the upcoming Emmy awards this year. The actors previously appeared together onstage in a 2008 summer production of Anton Chekhov's 'Uncle Vanya' at Bard College, New York, which was also directed by Schmidt.
