SoHo Shakespeare Company is telling our stories from unexpected perspectives ...

We are a collective of crafty theatre makers challenging the mainstream narrative by making space for the overlooked to rise up, be heard, and take center stage. Our mission is to develop radical reinterpretations of classic texts and bold new works by rabble-rousing storytellers. Through live productions, community programs, education, and outreach, we are dedicated to giving voice to the voiceless. Like the fox, forever digging and diving, theatre must always look to uncover hidden truths by listening to the people, in all our glorious diversity.

ABOUT THE SHOW

A Reaction to Fear ...

Lee Blessing’s gripping, deeply grounded drama.

At its core, this show is about “ignoring as always the larger disease: the cowardice, the viciousness with which we behaved.”

Truth, Terror, and Compassion

Patient A is a compelling, metatheatrical exploration of one of the most controversial moments of the early 1990s AIDS crisis. The play chronicles the true story of Kimberly Bergalis, a young woman who contracted HIV during a routine procedure at the dentist.

Rather than a straightforward biographical drama, Lee Blessing crafts a brilliant, multi-layered narrative.

This is a sparse, intimate, and emotionally devastating piece of theatre that demands incredible nuance from its actors and creative team. It doesn’t offer easy answers; instead, it invites the audience to sit with the discomfort of complex truths. Directed by Alex Pepperman Featuring Alexis Leone

What happens when fear becomes the contagion?

Lee Blessing’s Patient A reconstructs the true, heartbreaking story of Kimberly Bergalis—a young woman thrust into the center of a 1990s media firestorm after contracting HIV during a routine dental visit.

Part history, part metatheatrical reckoning, Patient A strips away political noise to confront the real disease: the viciousness and cowardice with which we react to crisis. It doesn’t offer easy comfort. Instead, it invites you into a sparse, searingly intimate space where memory, morality, and grief collide.

Daring, uncompromising, and urgently relevant, this is theater at its most powerful.

BEGINNING THIS WEEK — The most vital part of an actor’s journey is the consistent practice that happens between the bookings. It’s in the quiet of the studio where the real breakthroughs occur—away from the distractions of the industry and centered on the truth of the text.

While our name is rooted in the classics, our Advanced Scene Study I is an intensive for Contemporary acting, designed for the modern actor navigating today’s high-stakes theatre, film, and television landscape.

This isn’t a class about “getting it right.” It is a professional lab where you will:
Deconstruct Modern Text: Move beyond the surface of contemporary scripts to find the urgent, unspoken life of a scene.Expand Your Emotional Range: Practice the technical precision required to remain vulnerable and “dangerous” under the pressure of a professional set.Refine Your Process: Develop a repeatable, reliable preparation method that ensures you are booking-ready before you ever step into the room.
Train with Atlantic Theater Company’s Janice Amaya.
