NEWS FROM DEUCE

DEUCE STAR ANGELA LANSBURY INTERVIEWED ON “WEEKEND TODAY IN NEW YORK,” JULY 22

“Lansbury’s performance is deeply felt and powerful.
DEUCE is a memorable, infinitely entertaining master class in acting, and I’m mighty grateful for it.”
- Charles Isherwood, THE NEW YORK TIMES


DEUCE star Angela Lansbury will be interviewed on “Weekend Today in New York,” on Sunday, July 22 on WNBC-TV, Channel 4. The interview will run during the 8:30-9:00 AM half hour, at approximately 8:40 AM.

Ms. Lansbury and Ms. Seldes star in DEUCE as two former doubles tennis legends, reunited at a championship tournament. As they watch a singles match grow increasingly heated, the two women reminisce on the sidelines, remembering past triumphs and unearthing forgotten truths.
