Al Pacino To Play Herod In Salome

Al Pacino will star as King Herod in a Los Angeles stage production of Oscar Wilde's Salome.

The one-act biblical drama is scheduled to run from April 14, 2006 to May 14, 2006 at the Wadsworth Theatre, according to a press release for the show.

Pacino will play the king who lusts after his wife's daughter, Salome, played by Jessica Chastain.

Kevin Anderson plays John the Baptist, Salome's object of affection and later revenge.

Pacino worked with director Estelle Parsons for two years developing the 2003 Broadway version of the play.

Parsons will also direct the Los Angeles production.

Tickets go on sale on March 26, 2006.
