In ‘Waiting for Godot’ at Theatre for a New Audience, Michael Shannon and Paul Sparks lean in on the play’s humor, successfully.

The cast is led by Carmen Zilles and stars Broadway alums Carlo Albán, Jonathan Cake, and more.

Theatre for a New Audience will present the Off-Broadway premiere in English of the great Spanish author Lope de Vega’s Fuente Ovejuna (1612), translated by the late British poet, novelist, and playwright Adrian Mitchell.

TFANA will present Alice Childress’s Wedding Band. Director Awoye Timpo’s new staging, running April 23–May 15, brings Childress’s masterpiece to New York audiences for the first time since 1972, when it made its New York premiere in a production directed by Childress and Joseph Papp.

The production is brilliant and breathtakingly alive, and John Douglas Thompson's performance as Shylock is not to be missed.

Broadway's most enchanting show emerges from the pandemic shorter than it was.
