Overview
- The production opened October 30 at the Booth Theatre and is scheduled to run as a limited engagement through February 15, 2026.
- Laurie Metcalf leads the cast with Micah Stock, joined by John Drea and Meighan Gerachis, under Joe Mantello’s direction.
- Early reviews describe finely calibrated performances and minimalist staging by Scott Pask built around a single reclining couch.
- The 95-minute one-act is set in rural Idaho during the COVID years and traces a fraught reunion between an aunt and her nephew without relying on plot pyrotechnics.
- The Broadway staging preserves the Steppenwolf cast and creative team and credits producer Scott Rudin alongside Barry Diller, noting Rudin’s first official return since 2021.
