Casting is set for the New York premiere of Andrew Stein’s new play Disruption, which will begin previews July 22 prior to an official opening August 2 Off-Broadway at The Romulus Linney Courtyard Theatre at The Pershing Square Signature Center.
Directed by Hersh Ellis (Rain and Zoe Save the World), the limited engagement is currently scheduled through September 13.
The cast will be led by Jason Ralph (The Magicians), Tony nominee Conrad Ricamora (Oh, Mary!), Jasmine Sharma (Twelfth Night), Tony nominee Elizabeth Stanley (Jagged Little Pill), Joe Tippett (Mare of Easttown), Golden Globe nominee John David Washington (The Piano Lesson), and Shaunette Renée Wilson (The Resident). Additional casting, by Stephanie Yankwitt, will be announced at a later date.
Stein’s thriller asks the question, “Does anyone know what would make them truly happy?” Tech
entrepreneur Nick thinks he has the answer. After Silicon
Valley success and a big exit, Nick presents his three best friends with
his next big idea: an algorithm that promises to guide them through big life decisions better and
more effectively than they can guide themselves.
The upcoming production will also have scenic and costume design by Zoë Hurwitz, lighting design by Reza Behjat, sound design by Caroline Eng, video design by Yana Biryükova, and movement direction by Ryan VanDenBoom.
Sing Out, Louise! Productions is the general manager, and Aurora Productions is the production manager.
Jack DePalma produces.
