Nathan Lane, Danny Burstein and Zoë Wanamaker will return to Broadway for “Pictures From Home,” a new play about manhood, fatherhood and hidden truths.

“Pictures From Home” is based on the memoir by photographer Larry Sultan and is being adapted for the stage by Sharr White, whose credits include “The Other Place” and “Annapurna.” The story, described as equal parts comedic and dramatic, paints a portrait of a mother, father and son who photographed their lives.

Bartlett Sher, a nine-time Tony nominee for “The King and I,” “To Kill a Mockingbird” and others, is directing the stage version. “Pictures From Home” reunites Sher with Wanamaker, whom he directed in “Awake and Sing,” as well as and Burstein, whom he directed in “Fiddler on the Roof.”
