IS THIS A ROOM and DANA H. come to Broadway's Lyceum Theatre this Autumn
The Vineyard Theatre production of Tina Satter’s Is This A Room and the Goodman Theatre, Center Theatre Group and Vineyard Theatre’s production of Dana H. by Obie Award winner Lucas Hnath will play at Broadway’s Lyceum Theatre on a rotating schedule this Autumn.
Is This A Room starts previewing on 24 September, with Dana H. starting on 1 October. The productions will alternate over a 17-week engagement until 16 January 2022.
Is This A Room is the astonishingly true story of Reality Winner, the 25-year-old former Air Force linguist who was surprised at her home by the FBI on 3 June 2017. The play’s text is taken from the FBI transcript of her interrogation – and from these pages, Tina Satter has wrought an extraordinary human drama between Reality (Emily Davis) and the agents who question her. In this theatrical thriller, Reality’s life is upended before our eyes, and we’re left questioning American values and the very nature of the truth.
Emily Davis makes her Broadway debut in the piece, reprising her award-winning role of Reality Winner. Further cast and creatives will be announced shortly.
Dana H. tells the harrowing true story of a woman held captive in a series of Florida motels for five months. Told in Dana's own words and reconstructed for the stage by her son, playwright Lucas Hnath, this groundbreaking work shatters the boundaries of the art form and challenges our understanding of good and evil.
Deirdre O’Connell returns to Broadway in Dana H., reprising her Obie Award-winning performance.
Dana H. is adapted from interviews with Dana Higginbotham, conducted by Steve Cosson, and directed by Les Waters. The full creative team for Dana H. will be announced shortly.
Ticket on sale dates and additional details will be announced at a later date.
