If you're a fan of Larry David – like this guy is – then you're eagerly awaiting more details about the comedian and Curb Your Enthusiasm star's new Broadway show. Well, wait no longer!

The once-upon-a-time titled Shiva is now being known as Fish in the Dark, which David wrote (obviously) and will reportedly star in. And now, The New York Times claims that the Broadway show will begin "preview performances" on Feb. 2 and officially open on Mar. 5 of 2015.

The publication notes that Fish in the Dark will feature the apathetic comic in the role of a person similar to the one we've grown to love over the years and will center on a family member's death.

Starring alongside the Seinfeld creator will be an impressive cast of actors who hold resumes from the likes of television, film and the stage, including Jayne Houdyshell, who was nominated for a Tony for her appearance in Well; Oscar nominee Rosie PerezBasilica's own Jake Cannavale and former Sopranos character actor Jerry Adler, who played Hesh Rabkin on the famed HBO series.

As previously reported by MStarsNews, Hollywood's own Scott Rudin is serving as the show's producer. While Rudin has made a name for himself in producing some of showbiz's most talked about films, such as No Country For Old Men, Jon Stewart's upcoming Rosewater, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Social Network, his stage credits are rather impressive as well, having produced the uber popular Book of Mormon.

Looks like this play is lining up to be pretty, pretty, pretty good!
