I'd put the last paragraph first. If you're a fan of this actor and enjoy books on CD, the Lansburgh is selling copies of the Bible which he's read aloud. This production is not for the squeamish and certainly is for those w/ an ironic sense of humor.

It's a positive mark for the DC threatre scene that we would have the rare early opportunity to see this show outside of NYC. Lately we've had an embarassment of riches to choose from, but I would recommend trying to fit this show into your schedule if you have any interest at all.
