SPECIAL OFFER: THANKSGIVING WEEK AT THE PUBLIC

Revisit Tony Kushner's first epic play, A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY, or join Richard Nelson's THE MICHAELS in the kitchen of their farmhouse in Rhinebeck this Thanksgiving season at The Public Theater.

Learn more about these two productions and how to access $40 tickets* by using the code THANKSTW below.

Tony Kushner's A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY

Tony Kushner, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright (Angels in America), reunites with longtime collaborator and The Public Theater’s Artistic Director Oskar Eustis (White Noise) in a scorching new version of his first play, the prescient 1985 masterwork suggesting the possibility of the Reagan counter-revolution eventually giving rise to American fascism.

Funny, brilliant, and devastating, this new production of A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY revisits an epic work that takes a piercing look at the vulnerability of American democracy, and demands to know: when the devil takes up residence in your country… will you act?

Richard Nelson's THE MICHAELS

Tony Award-winning playwright/director Richard Nelson returns to The Public with the world premiere of THE MICHAELS. Part of Nelson’s critically acclaimed RHINEBECK PANORAMA, which includes The Apple Family and The Gabriels, this new drama places the audience directly into the kitchen of Rose Michael, a celebrated choreographer. Dinner is cooked, modern dances are rehearsed, and the meal is eaten — all amidst conversations about art, death, family, dance, politics, the state of America, and how the world sees our country... and a host of everyday questions that make up the richness of ordinary life.
