Think Tennessee Williams (with a splash of Rose’), sprinkle in some Oscar Wilde, with Lauren Gunderson, Kate Hamill, and Sarah Ruhl hosting the party!

Act II Playhouse

March 19 – April 14, 2024
It’s opening night for Broadway’s biggest new show, The Golden Egg, and while celebrities pour in downstairs at the producer’s opening night party, the creative team – including the excitable playwright, a cranky critic, the wunderkind director, and the pill-popping leading lady – all huddle upstairs to await the first review. Tony Braithwaite leads a hilarious ensemble in this play that both satirizes and lifts up the theatre industry and the crazy cast of characters who make it all possible. An Act II Playhouse Premiere!
