Why Shia LaBeouf's coat may appear on Broadway

The new version of Terrence McNally's It's Only A Play begins previews on Broadway Aug. 28, with an ensemble cast that includes Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick.

After a recent rehearsal, we learned the text is still evolving.

"It continues to be updated, to the moment," Lane says. As of now, the showbiz satire includes references to a number of celebs who weren't yet famous — or even around, in a few cases — when the original play was produced back in 1982.

"Lady Gaga's (mentioned) in it," Broderick says. Lane confirms this, adding, "And Shia LaBeouf."

"Shia LaBeouf's coat makes an appearance," Broderick reveals.

"Hey, no spoilers," Lane warns him.

The play doesn't officially open until Oct. 9, so stay tuned.
