PlayLabs feature brand new work by some of the most exciting writers working today. Each has his or her own unique, exciting voice that we can’t wait to share with you. Hear their work read by New York's best actors - past readings have featured Michael Shannon (Oscar nominee for Revolutionary Road, Bug), Michael Urie (Ugly Betty), Marin Ireland (reasons to be pretty on Broadway, Blasted), Eddie Kaye Thomas (American Pie), and many more.
MCC Theater PlayLabs bring new plays to you. But they also bring you to new plays. Join us after every reading for a reception, a chance to chat with the artists and meet other new play enthusiasts.
