When playwright Jez Butterworth found out that Hugh Jackman was interested in appearing in his new drama, The River, after a brief run at London's Royal Court, the dramatist and his team put the show on the fast track to Broadway. Now the mysterious play is getting ready to start previews, on Halloween no less, at the Circle in the Square Theatre. What attracted an actor of Jackman's caliber to a role simply titled "The Man"?
