The production will be presented live for three nights only – July 1 through July 3 – at the Lower East Side venue The Wild Project. Following the live run, a ticketed virtual presentation will be available beginning July 29 through Eventive, with all proceeds from the virtual presentation ticket sales benefitting The Cultural Solidarity Fund, which provides relief microgrants to artists and cultural workers impacted by the pandemic.
Said Winters, who will also direct the play, “The essence of New York City’s theater community, at it’s very best, is all about showing up and showing support; you buy a ticket, you build a flat, you lend a hand in whatever way you can because everyone deserves the chance to tell their story. We are all deeply inspired by the work of the Cultural Solidarity Fund, grateful for their leadership in helping artists through this time, and unbelievably excited for what comes next.
“We have been breathlessly waiting for the return of live theater and are so thrilled to be able to take part in its joyful return,” said Risa Heller and Jonathan Rosen, co-founders of New York Forever. “New York will always be the center of the cultural universe and this production of Frank Winters’ new show marks its first step back.”Younger
