Thom Yorke, the singer best known for his work with Radiohead, is headed to Broadway in the fall. The Grammy-winning vocalist, whose whirlwind voice glides across octaves with an oft-wondrous liquidity on albums including “OK Computer,” “Kid A” and “The King of Limbs,” is working with the respected Roundabout Theatre Company on music for a new staging of Harold Pinter’s “Old Times.”
The production, which will star Clive Owen, Eve Best and Kelly Reilly, will open in October at the American Airlines Theatre in New York in celebration of Roundabout’s 50th anniversary.
This is Yorke’s first work for a stage production, which shouldn't be surprising.
