A chilling piece of American theatre history is heading back into the spotlight. The play revisits one of the most infamous chapters in American cultural history, when artists, actors, writers, directors, and performers were asked to defend their loyalty, reveal their politics, and, in many cases, name names.

“A recent shot that I went into the shoot aiming to get was this tackle moment during the rumble in . That entire section is impossibly difficult to shoot…the lighting has extreme changes every couple of seconds so you’re constantly adjusting your settings and reacting to how the performers are situated in the space. I’d really wanted to get this shot, but even once I got it I wasn’t sure it would ever see the light of day. I knew it was exciting, but that doesn’t always mean it gets selected as an official press shot. I was thrilled when it did.“

“Schmigadoon is pure escapism and a laugh riot directly adapted from but exceeding the impact of its television predecessor. The plot, much of the dialogue, and most of the songs (all by Cinco Paul) are largely unchanged from the series, but a loving parody of an art form in that art form — the traditional two-act structure with a live audience, rather than a six-episode TV show — hits different. In other words, the piece needs laughter to break the fourth wall and remove any seriousness from the narrative, and at the Nederlander Theatre, you are encouraged to laugh at absolutely everything.

“Dog Day Afternoon tells the same story as the Oscar-winning 1975 movie, but with a new script and certain directorial choices that make it distinctly more comedic. While diehard fans of the film will struggle with these changes – as some critics did – those who can put their purism aside, or those going in blind, will greatly enjoy this fast-paced, funny, and deeply entertaining play as its own work of art.” Read the review at link in bio.
