Why You’ll Love It
Good writers borrow, great writers steal. Jacob McNeal (Robert Downey Jr.) is a great writer, one of our greatest, and a perpetual candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature. But McNeal also has an estranged son, a new novel, old axes to grind, and an unhealthy fascination with Artificial Intelligence. With Tony Award Winner Bartlett Sher Directing, Pulitzer Prize-winner Ayad Akhtar’s new play is a startling and wickedly smart examination of the inescapable humanity – and increasing inhumanity – of the stories we tell.
Word on the street
Shrtlst Team
This is Robert Downey Jr.'s Broadway debut and the play is highly anticipated given the director and writer. The full cast has not been announced but is suspected to have some very heavy hitters. You do not want to miss out on this one.
