THE MOTHERF**KER WITH THE HAT is a new high-octane, verbal cage match about love, fidelity, and misplaced haberdashery from playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis. Jackie (Cannavale) and Veronica (Rodriguez) have been in love since the 8th grade. But now, Jackie is on parole and living clean and sober under the guidance of his sponsor, Ralph D (Rock), while still living and loving with his volatile soul mate Veronica (Sciorra) who is fiercely loving, but far from sober. Still, their love is pure. And true. Nothing can come between them - except a hat.The creative team includes scenic design by Todd Rosenthal, costume design by Mimi O'Donnelland lighting design by Donald Holder.Videos
