Theatre East is proud to announce the U.S. premiere of An Ordinary Afternoon in 1974 by Obie and GLAAD Award winner, Daniel MacIvor (In On It, Never Swim Alone). The play, under the direction of Judson Jones (Eye of God, Canaan Unremembered, The Soldier Dreams) will run April 29 through May 23, with an official opening night on May 1, at Theatre East’s Court Square Theater (44-02 23rd Street, Long Island City, NY).
What begins as an ordinary afternoon quickly becomes a story that refuses to stay quiet. Bold, irreverent, and full of joy, the play follows two longtime friends and neighbors, Joan played by Carla Briscoe (Blue Caprice, A Little Help, Breaking the News) and Elizabeth played by Holly Cinnamon (Marvel’s Daredevil, A House of Dynamite, Hocus Pocus 2, Succession) as they revisit their shared past. An Ordinary Afternoon in 1974 is a vibrant celebration of women claiming their space, their voices, and their extraordinary power.
