Joshua Harmon's SIGNIFICANT OTHER Set to Premiere at Laura Pels Theatre This Spring; Trip Cullman Set to Direct!

Roundabout Theatre Company (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director) has just announced the world premiere of Significant Other, a new play by Joshua Harmon ("Bad Jews") directed by Trip Cullman ("Murder Ballad").

Roundabout Theatre Company's relationship with Joshua Harmon began when his play "Bad Jews" was selected for the inaugural Roundabout Underground Reading Series for Emerging Playwrights in February 2012. The play then premiered at Roundabout Underground's Black Box in fall 2012, in a sold-out extended run. In Fall 2013, Harmon's "Bad Jews" moved upstairs to the 420-seat Laura Pels Theatre, enjoying a critically acclaimed extended engagement, and was the third most produced play around the country this season. In addition to Significant Other, a third Harmon play is in development, commissioned by Roundabout, with workshops set to begin in 2015.

Performances of Significant Other will begin in the May 2015 at the Laura Pels Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre (111 West 46th Street). This will be a limited engagement.

The full cast & design team will be announced soon.

A quarter-life coming-of-age story that's as hilarious as it is heart-wrenching, Significant Other takes us into the trenches of single life in the city. Jordan Berman would love to be in love, but that's easier said than done. So until he meets Mr. Right, he wards off lonely nights with his trio of close-knit girlfriends. But as singles' nights turn into bachelorette parties, Jordan finds that supporting the ones you love can be just as impossible as finding love itself.
