In Association with New Light Theater Project

September 26 - October 25, 2026

2016, London. Seventeen-year-old Karya is navigating her brother’s unresolved disappearance. When her mother’s outrageous theory about his whereabouts starts to gain traction, Karya decides to put it to the test. With her best friend, she devises a twisted online experiment, setting a hook in the darkest corners of the internet. But what begins as a search for answers quickly spirals into something more sinister than she ever expected. By turns sharp, tensely funny, and tender, Fish is a darkly comedic coming-of-age story about grief, girlhood and games that go too far.

Announcing FISH, THE STAND IN, and YOU SEEM SAD at WP Theater!

“This season embodies so much of what makes WP special: the most extraordinary Women+ artists working at the top of their game. These plays ask questions about identity, belonging, and ambition with humor, imagination, and heart. We are especially thrilled to continue our commitment to artistic partnership through collaborations with some of the most exciting theater companies in New York.”

A huge morning-after shout to the brilliant WP artists who were recognized last night with a Tony Award.
It’s always a beautiful thing to watch artists launch from WP into the stratosphere, and last night’s Tonys were a particularly beautiful example of that launchpad in action.
Rachel, Qween, Lear, and Jen - we loved watching you get your well-deserved flowers! 💐
Love,
Your WP Fam

A gifted steelpan player, Garland has been offered the opportunity to tour with the most famous Calypso group in the Caribbean, but Fitz fears the outcome will repeat his own disappointments in life. As tensions grow and secrets are revealed, the family struggles to mend broken dreams and find their lost harmony.
