QUICK TAKES - Jan. 13, 2009

Get ready. Tony Soprano on Broadway.

James Gandolfini -- from HBO’s classic mob series “The Sopranos” -- will star with Jeff Daniels, Hope Davis and Marcia Gay Harden in “God of Carnage,” Yasmina Reza’s four-character play about the clash between liberal, middle-class couples.

The play opens March 22 at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre in New York.

“God of Carnage” was a hit last year in London with a cast that included Ralph Fiennes and Janet McTeer. The director is Matthew Warchus, who also directed Reza’s comedy “Art” in London and New York.
