Second Stage Theatre's upcoming season will continue the company's mission of producing bold new plays and musicals by American playwrights as well as second stagings of the best of contemporary theatre.
The 2010-2011 season features the World Premiere of BY THE WAY, MEET VERA STARK, the new comedy from Pulitzer Prize-winner Lynn Nottage (RUINED, INTIMATE APPAREL). BY THE WAY, MEET VERA STARK is Ms. Nottage's first play to be produced in New York since she won the Pulitzer Prize for RUINED in 2009.
The season also includes the (currently playing) New York Premiere of Rajiv Joseph's GRUESOME PLAYGROUND INJURIES, directed by Tony nominee Scott Ellis. Mr. Joseph returns to Second Stage where his plays ALL THIS INTIMACY and ANIMALS OUT OF PAPER (Lortel nomination for Outstanding Play) premiered as part of the company's Uptown Series. This production marks Mr. Joseph's mainstage debut.
Arthur Kopit's 1978 drama WINGS, directed by Tony Award-winner John Doyle (SWEENEY TODD, COMPANY), opened up the season last fall where Jan Maxwell received critical acclaim for her leading role. A fourth production is still to be announced.
