2025/26 Season

This new musical captures the joy of embodied liberation and the profound power of faith, with a score that soars from the transcendence of gospel to the exhilarating vibrations of house music and pop. Saturday Church boldly asks, “is faith only for the Holy?” and, more importantly, “are there any queens in the house?!!!!”

Tartuffe is in our house. We’ve got to get him out. Tony Award nominee Lucas Hnath and Obie Award winner Sarah Benson conspire to bring us a razor-sharp reinvention of Molière’s iconoclastic comedy in a mad-dash production full of ferocious wit, outrageous design, and downright buffoonery.

Obie-winning duo and NYTW Usual Suspects The Bengsons return to NYTW with a raucous and funny and tender indie folk punk show about grief and healing. Rachel Chavkin directs with choreography by Steph Paul and music supervision by Or Matias.

Inspired by her decades-long work with prison populations, including on the notorious Rikers Island, Liza Jessie Peterson’s timely and urgent one-person show unpacks the human impact of mass incarceration in America.

A Radical, Rollicking Rumination on the Optimism of Staying Alive. Deep into her third and final act of being a person, NYTW Usual Suspect Kathryn Grody investigates an eclectic, devastating and hilarious potpourri of shocking discoveries as she finds herself at 79 becoming…not quite old, but elder. “Old starts at 95!” she declares.

Mention My Beauty is a one-woman performance piece by playwright and performer Leslie Ayvazian (Nine Armenians) who speaks candidly about navigating the anti-war movement, the women’s movement, and the sexual revolution.

Sardines explores—with tremendous grace and humanity—the tragic, hilarious, and important questions of our time: Can we enjoy life if we know how it ends? Does making art actually help? And if Rihanna’s song is called “Don’t Stop the Music,” why does the music… stop?

Combining storytelling, mask, and stand-up comedy, The Horse of Jenin is constructed from the fragments of Palestinian actor and comedian Alaa Shehada’s own memories and stands as an ode to the power of imagination and the resilience it brings.
