\u2022 First Preview: February 15, 2019
\u2022 Opening: March 10, 2019

\u2022 Director: Leah C. Gardiner
\u2022 Choreographer: Raja Feather Kelly

In the village of Affreakah-Amirrorkah, no one questions that Akim is the one true, perfect beauty \u2014 not even her jealous classmates. But they\u2019ll be damned before they let her be the leading lady in this story. A decidedly contemporary riff on a West African fable, Tori Sampson\u2019s explosive epic is brimming with live music and dance, as these frenemies jockey for their rank in a culture built on ideals forever out of reach.<\/p>\n
THE MOTHER<\/b> Can one love one\u2019s son too much? Anne has given everything to the family she\u2019s built. Now the years have gone by, and her children have grown up and have lives and loves of their own, leaving her alone in a world that is crumbling around her.<\/p>\n NANTUCKET SLEIGH RIDE<\/b> In his attempts to recover a memory of an event that happened on that “far away island” 35 years before, Nantucket Sleigh Ride<\/i> plunges a New York playwright-turned- venture capitalist into a whirlpool of a giant lobster, Roman Polanski, a pornography ring, Walt Disney, a murder, stranded children, and Jorge Luis Borges, with the most unexpected results.<\/p>\n SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY<\/b> Set in an under-funded public school in Newark, Surely Goodness and Mercy<\/i> tells the story of a bible-toting boy with a photographic memory who befriends the cantankerous old lunch lady. Against all odds, Tino and Bernadette help each other through the mess of growing up and growing old.<\/p>\n HATEFUCK<\/b> Passions ignite when Layla, an intense literature professor, accuses Imran, a brashly iconoclastic novelist, of trading in anti-Muslim stereotypes. But as their attraction grows into something more, they discover that good sex doesn\u2019t always make good bedfellows. Conflicting cultural identities collide in this thornily clever antidote to a \u201cmeet-cute\u201d romance.<\/p>\n WHITE NOISE<\/b> Long-time friends and lovers Leo, Misha, Ralph, and Dawn are educated, progressive, cosmopolitan, and woke. But when a racially motivated incident with the cops leaves Leo shaken, he decides extreme measures must be taken for self-preservation.<\/p>\n A JEWISH JOKE<\/b> Bernie Lutz is a curmudgeonly Jewish comedy screenwriter from MGM, who comes up against the Communist blacklist in 1950\u2019s Hollywood. Now, he has to decide what’s more important – his friends, or his livelihood? Armed with stories about the great era of Jewish humor, this poignant solo dramedy is about one American’s fight against one of the darkest moments of the mid-20th century. <\/p>\n SKINNAMARINK<\/b> SKINNAMARINK: What is this play about? Who wrote this play? Why did they write it? Would you like to grow up without being able to write? Who is a greedy girl? What is a glutton? What is important about the sun and the moon and the wind and the rain and a bug and a bee and a\u2014BELL BELL BELL BELL BELL BELL BELL. Based on the deceptively simple yet rich language in \u201cMcGuffey’s Eclectic Readers\u201d \u2014 a series of 19th-century American schoolbooks that taught generations how to read, think, and behave \u2014 SKINNAMARINK is part ritual, part recess, part recruitment. Attendance is mandatory.<\/p>\n JUNO AND THE PAYCOCK<\/b> Jack Boyle is out of work and determined to stay that way. He postures and drinks with his sidekick Joxer while his long-suffering wife Juno struggles to support their family and maintain their dilapidated tenement flat. Their son Johnny, crippled fighting in the revolution, cowers indoors to avoid the bitter new civil war, while his sister Mary considers her options for the future. When a handsome visitor arrives with news of an inheritance, the family begins to plan their new life, but their apparent salvation soon reveals itself to be the cause of their ruin.<\/p>\n ACCIDENTALLY BRAVE<\/b> Courageous, daring, and unflinchingly honest, Accidentally Brave<\/i> is an inspiring true story about discovering a new normal when everything you thought you knew comes undone. With raw vulnerability and unexpected humor, actor and playwright Maddie Corman shares her story of perseverance and hope when the unthinkable tests her marriage, family and values.<\/p>\n VILNA<\/b> Vilna<\/i>, inspired by a news report of the discovery of the escape tunnel at the site of the Vilna ghetto, tells the heroic story of Motke Zeidel and Yudi Farber from the ages of 11 through 28, actual people who come of age in the remarkable city of Vilna during its degradation in the years before World War II and its destruction during the war. As the home they knew collapses, going from vibrant metropolis to stifling ghetto and ultimately the Ponar killing pits, they face painful moral choices to save others while putting their own lives at risk.<\/p>\n AFTER<\/b> An incident of bullying leads to a horrifying consequence in this timely new play that follows the journey of two families: before, in the moments leading up to the event; and after, as they pick up the pieces once the news cameras have gone home.<\/p>\n AIN’T NO MO’<\/b> Ain’t No Mo’<\/i> is a vibrant satirical odyssey portraying the great exodus of black Americans out of a country plagued with injustice. In a kaleidoscope of scenes of the moments before, during, and after this outrageous departure, Jordan E. Cooper\u2019s masterful new work explores the value of black lives in a country hurtling away from the promise of a black president.<\/p>\n DO YOU FEEL ANGER?<\/b> Sofia is hired as an empathy coach at a debt collection agency \u2014 and clearly, she has her work cut out for her. These employees can barely identify what an emotion is, much less practice deep, radical compassion for others. As they painstakingly stumble towards enlightenment, someone keeps mugging Eva in the kitchen, and the unspoken dynamics of their seemingly blithe workplace culture become increasingly unsettling.<\/p>\n A MUSICAL ABOUT STAR WARS<\/b> It\u2019s literally a musical about Star Wars<\/i>. What happens when a couple of Star Wars<\/i> nerds set out to create the ultimate Star Wars musical\u2026well, a lot of diversions and non-sequiturs happen. This is the ultimate tribute to the fandom, the legacy, and the galaxy of the greatest story ever told! <\/p>\n PERP<\/b> There\u2019s a vicious killer on the loose and the kindhearted Douglass finds himself the unwitting target of detectives who need a win at any cost. Desperate to seek justice, Douglass sets out on a harrowing, fantastical quest to find the true perpetrator. In this riveting world premiere by Lyle Kessler, the lines between good and evil blur in a divine search for redemption.<\/p>\n SMART BLONDE<\/b> Judy Holliday lays down a series of tracks about her rise to fame amidst the politics of the 1950s. Memory and song converge as the \u201cdumb blonde\u201d with a genius IQ charts her experiences from Greenwich Village to Broadway and beyond with notable show business alums, including Leonard Bernstein<\/a> and Marilyn Monroe.<\/p>\n JULIUS CAESAR<\/b><\/a> Julius Caesar is a marked man. Adoring commoners celebrate his battlefield victories, but those higher up the Roman political ladder worry that his ambition has grown too large. On a stormy night full of alarming sights and ominous portents, Cassius persuades Caesar’s friend Brutus to help him with a momentous task: assassinate Caesar for the good of the Republic. But death doesn’t stop Caesar, whose spirit haunts the destinies of his friends and enemies, threatening the republican ideal for which they murdered him.<\/p>\n THE CRADLE WILL ROCK<\/b> In Steeltown, USA, laborer Larry Foreman struggles to unionize fellow steel workers against mounting attacks from a greedy industrialist, who uses his power to influence nearly everyone else in town. Marc Blitzstein\u2019s folk opera, created through the Federal Theater Project, was famously shut down on the eve of opening night by federal authorities fearing its pro-labor stance.<\/p>\n THE WHITE DEVIL<\/b> Vittoria is no angel…but is she guilty of murder? Her social-climbing brother ruthlessly exploits her carnal affair with a power-drunk Duke. The arrival of the Duke’s wife, her brother, and the soon-to-be-Pope triggers a cycle of deceit and retribution that shatters family bonds and threatens the social order.<\/p>\n I MARRIED AN ANGEL<\/b> Fed up with women, a banker vows he will marry only an angel. It’s only a song or two before she comes flying in through the window! Her absolute honesty unintentionally alienates everyone from the banker’s biggest depositor to society’s grand dame. Will Angel learn to tell a social lie? Will her husband survive her efforts?<\/p>\n IS ANYONE OUT THERE ALIVE?<\/b> As the world devolves into a fiery pit of hell, radio hosts Noel and Julia sift through the contents of their destroyed recording studio and broadcast its records \u2013 a mix of unfortunate B-sides and forgotten non-classics to anyone who may, in fact, still be alive.<\/p>\n THE LEHMAN TRILOGY<\/b> From the arrival of three brothers from Bavaria to America in search of a new life to the collapse of the firm they established, triggering the largest financial crisis in history, the story of the Lehman Brothers traces the trajectory of western capitalism by following the fortunes of a single immigrant family.<\/p>\n MRS. MURRAY’S MENAGERIE<\/b> The creators of a 1970’s children’s television program have commissioned a focus group to probe the parents of the show’s target audience. Over stale coffee and donuts, a group of strangers navigates the murky waters of American belief and perception.<\/p>\n SINCERELY, OSCAR<\/b> Sincerely, Oscar<\/i> is a one-of-a-kind musical experience highlighting Oscar Hammerstein\u2019s journey to become Broadway\u2019s greatest lyricist. Through curated story-telling and imaginative performances, this visually stunning show utilizes cutting edge, 3D holographic technology and explores Oscar\u2019s amazing life in his words while weaving a melodious tapestry of over 30 of his greatest songs from shows like The Sound of Music<\/i><\/a>, Show Boat<\/i><\/a>, Oklahoma!<\/i>, Carousel<\/i><\/a>, South Pacific<\/i><\/a>, Allegro<\/i> and more…<\/p>\n EH DAH? QUESTIONS FOR MY FATHER<\/b> Eh Dah? Questions for My Father<\/i> follows the lives of a family divided across continents and cultures in a turbulent political landscape. Set in Egypt and America, this contemporary musical by Aya Aziz explores what it means to live in post a 9\/11 world.<\/p>\n THE PAIN OF MY BELLIGERENCE<\/b> Twenty-something and brilliant, Cat is a journalist at the top of her game: tack-sharp and ambitious, and rapidly establishing her place in the field. Until she meets Guy \u2014 magnetic, devilishly charming, and married \u2014 and the attrition begins. Charting their spiky relationship over eight years, following a rapidly changing America, Halley Feiffer\u2019s harrowing comedy sheds light on how we perpetuate our roles within a patriarchal culture, and the promise of a new paradigm.<\/p>\n SOCRATES<\/b> This powerful new play is an intellectual thrill ride from the philosopher\u2019s growing prominence in democratic Athens through the military and social upheavals that led to one of the most infamous executions in Western history.<\/p>\n MIRACLE IN RWANDA<\/b> In April 1994 in Rwanda, an extremist militia of Hutu tribesmen began a brutal, widespread effort to exterminate all members of the Tutsi minority tribe. A Catholic young woman named Immaculee went into hiding, armed only with the rosary her father gave her. While marauders searched for her, she made a decision to pray using the beads her father gave her, transforming her heart and mind, so that in the midst of this holocaust, she found the core divinity within her, the place that no killer can eradicate.<\/p>\n 17 BORDER CROSSINGS<\/b> 17 Border Crossings<\/i> begins with a man at a desk on an empty stage and ends up everywhere but, taking audiences on a trip around the world via Phillips’s effortlessly fluent storytelling. A chair, table, and bar of lights become the imagined settings for invasive body searches at Charles de Gaulle, ayahuasca experiments in the Amazon, KFC-smuggling in Palestine, and run-ins with Ace of Base on Croatian ferries in this engrossing look at the imaginary lines that divide up the world and the very real barriers they create.<\/p>\n BLKS<\/b> When shit goes down, your girls show up. As sharply funny as it is poignant, BLKS<\/i> introduces us to Octavia, Imani, and June\u2014three twenty somethings in New York City hunting for intimacy and purpose in a city that doesn\u2019t seem to care. They drink a lot. They smoke a lot. They try to have sex. A lot. When they need each other the most, the women rally to \u201cresurrect their fly\u201d in a day full of humorous and painful attempts to be heard through the noise that surrounds them.<\/p>\n GRIEF IS THE THING WITH FEATHERS<\/b> In a London flat, two young boys face the unbearable sadness of their mother\u2019s sudden death. Their father, a scruffy romantic, imagines a future of well meaning visitors and emptiness. In this moment of despair they are visited by Crow \u2013 antagonist, trickster, healer, babysitter. This sentimental bird is drawn to the grieving family and threatens to stay until they no longer need him.<\/p>\n THE PLOUGH AND THE STARS<\/b> Pretty young newlywed Nora Clitheroe is the talk of her tenement as she tirelessly works to lift her family out of their impoverished circumstances. She tries to keep her husband Jack from the revolutionary fervor sweeping through Dublin. But Jack becomes a Commandant in the Irish Citizen Army, and when the Easter Rising of 1916 begins, he leaves a pregnant Nora to help lead the fight. The disparate, quarrelsome tenement residents are forced to shelter together as urban warfare makes their home nearly as treacherous as the streets.<\/p>\n CURSE OF THE STARVING CLASS<\/b> Living a stagnant, unhappy existence in rural California, the struggling Tate family is desperate for change, but every family member has a different way of trying to improve their station in life.<\/p>\n PASSAGE<\/b> X marks the spot for Country Y. Y>X. Or is it?<\/p>\n OCTET<\/b> Featuring a score for an a cappella chamber choir and an original libretto inspired by internet comment boards, scientific debates, religious texts, and Sufi poetry, Octet<\/i> explores addiction and nihilism within the messy context of 21st century technology.<\/p>\n HAPPY TALK<\/b> Lorraine is a saint of the suburbs. On top of trying to save her dying mother, miserable husband and estranged daughter, she\u2019s starring as Bloody Mary in the Jewish Community Center production of South Pacific<\/i>. When her mother\u2019s home aide, Serbian immigrant Ljuba, asks for help finding a husband, Lorraine takes on her most challenging role to date: matchmaker.<\/p>\n SOMETHING CLEAN<\/b> Wash the dishes. Mop the floors. Change the sheets. Change the past. Charlotte is a wife and mother who\u2019ll try anything to put her family back together. Selina Fillinger\u2019s new drama slips into the jagged cracks of a sex crime\u2019s aftermath\u2014the guilt, the grief, and the ways we grapple with the unthinkable.<\/p>\n CONTINUITY<\/b> A sheet of ice sits in the desert of New Mexico. A mad eco-terrorist plants a bomb in order to save humankind. A beleaguered film crew tries to get in one last shot before losing the light. Continuity is a sly, biting comedy in six takes where storytelling and science collide with both hilarious and devastating consequences. The play asks, “How do we keep going when hope can seem as fictional as a Hollywood ending?” “How do we tell the stories that could shape our future?” and, perhaps most importantly, “What’s for lunch?”<\/p>\n ENTER LAUGHING: THE MUSICAL<\/b> Based on Carl Reiner\u2019s autobiographical novel and Joseph Stein\u2019s stage adaptation, this hilariously tuneful musical careens through the misadventures of star-struck, stage-struck, woman-struck teenager David Kolowitz, who pratfalls his way into manhood via the theatre.<\/p>\n MAC BETH<\/b> On an autumn afternoon, in an empty lot outside the city, seven girls meet up to do a play. School uniform tartan transforms in this American urban wasteland. The girls are witches, ghosts, and kings. They hurl headlong into the unchecked passions of Macbeth, as the line between real life and blood fantasy quickly blurs. Through prophecies and smartphones, unexpected resonances emerge from Shakespeare\u2019s dark nightmare of ambition gone awry. These young women discover what’s done cannot be undone.<\/p>\n HIGH BUTTON SHOES<\/b> In the age of Model T Fords and Keystone Kops, a fast-talking conman hopes to strike it rich in his old hometown. Infectious songs include “Papa Won’t You Dance With Me,” “I Still Get Jealous” and “You’re My Girl.”<\/p>\n THE PINK UNICORN<\/b> Trisha Lee is a Christian widow living in a conservative Texas town. Her life is suddenly upended when her 14-year-old daughter Jolene announces she is “gender queer” and starting a chapter of the Gay and Straight Alliance at the local high school.

When Rosaleen, her black caregiver, is beaten and jailed for asserting her right to vote, Lily’s rebellious spirit is ignited.

While Lily tries to unlock the secrets of her past, she and Rosaleen find solace in the mesmerizing world of bees and spirituality in this extraordinary tale of awakening, fellowship and healing.<\/p>\n LONG LOST<\/b> When troubled Billy appears out-of-the-blue in his estranged brother David\u2019s Wall Street office, he soon tries to re-insert himself into the comfortable life David has built with his philanthropist wife and college-age son.

And how much can family bonds smooth over past rifts?<\/p>\n LITTLE WOMEN<\/b> Jo March doesn’t want to be like other girls; in fact, she’s not even sure that she wants to be a girl. Jo is ambitious, rough around the edges, headstrong, and yearns for a future she can’t yet articulate. As the nation is torn apart by civil war, Jo and her sisters struggle with what it means to grow up.
