Manhattan Theatre Club presents the world premiere of PRODIGAL SON, the new play written and directed by Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize winner John Patrick Shanley (Doubt, Outside Mullingar). PRODIGAL SON opened just last night, February 9, at MTC at New York City Center - Stage I. BroadwayWorld was there for the big night and you can check out photos from the after party below!
The cast for PRODIGAL SON features Annika Boras (Chair, An Oresteia), Timothée Chalamet ("Homeland," Interstellar), Tony Award winner Robert Sean Leonard (The Invention of Love, "House"), Chris McGarry (Defiance, Doubt), and David Potters (New York stage debut).
PRODIGAL SON is a passionate, explosive portrait of a young man on the verge of salvation or destruction, written and directed by John Patrick Shanley (of Tony, Academy Award, and Pulitzer Prize fame). A 17-year-old boy (Timothée Chalamet) from The Bronx finds himself suddenly in a private school in New Hampshire. He's violent, gifted, alienated, on fire with a ferocious loneliness. Two faculty members (Tony Award winner Robert Sean Leonard and Chris McGarry) wrestle with the dilemma: Is the kid a star or a disaster?
The world premiere of PRODIGAL SON marks another exciting step forward in the collaboration between Manhattan Theatre Club and this visceral New York playwright (Doubt, Outside Mullingar).
