Mark Harelik

’Burn Notice’ star to headline Chicago’s ’Don’t Dress for Dinner’

Jeffrey Donovan, a star of the TV show "Burn Notice" (on the USA Network), is to star in the upcoming commercial production of the farce "Don’t Dress for Dinner" at the Royal George Theatre in Chicago.

And there are two Broadway names in the cast: the longtime Neo-Futurist Spencer Kayden, who went on to fame in "Urinetown," and Mark Harelik, who recently appeared in "The Light in the Piazza." (Kayden and Harelik are husband and wife.) Donovan, incidentally, can soon be seen in a supporting role in the Clint Eastwood movie "Changeling," starring Angelina Jolie.

Under the direction of John Tillinger, "Don’t Dress for Dinner" (by Marc Camoletti) begins performances on Nov. 14. Opening night is Nov. 23.

It’s looking a lot like a New York tryout.
