The Playwrights Realm presents Choreomania 1518

September 25 - 27

White lettering on a black backround reads Nietzsche a New Musical. A bird hovers over a grey and white drawing of a man and a women in period clothing. White lettering below them reads October 10-12, 2025 Mezzanine Theatre at A.R.T./New York Book, lyrics and music by Kimerer LaMathe Music and orchestration by Geoffrey Gee

Written by Malena Pennycook

Directed by Tara Elliot 

It's 16th-century France, and everything is horrible—bubonic plague, major agricultural collapse, and leadership that’s corrupt as all hell. When a potato farmer starts dancing uncontrollably in the field, her mania catches on, and a “dancing plague” breaks out. Call it mass hysteria or the only sane response in a world gone mad… but whatever you do, don't stop dancing.

Presented as apart of the Beyond the Realm 2025 Festival

Beyond script readings.
Beyond traditional productions.
Beyond the limits of audience and stage.

In the third edition of this festival, we’re once again creating a radical space of experimentation to serve the needs of playwrights whose bold new works don’t fit in the traditional play development model. Showcasing three very different pieces guided by unique perspectives of what can be done on a stage, Beyond The Realm is needed more than ever — are you ready to go beyond?

October 10 - October 12

White lettering on a black backround reads Nietzsche a New Musical. A bird hovers over a grey and white drawing of a man and a women in period clothing. White lettering below them reads October 10-12, 2025 Mezzanine Theatre at A.R.T./New York Book, lyrics and music by Kimerer LaMathe Music and orchestration by Geoffrey Gee

Choreography by Kimerer LaMothe

Nietzsche unveils the cast of characters who shaped the life and legacy of the controversial philosopher—Friedrich (“Fritz”) Nietzsche. His mother wanted him to be a pastor. His musical mentor wanted him to defend antisemitism. His sister wanted power. His love interest wanted freedom. And Fritz wanted to love life—all of it. But how? What do you do when you adore people whose values you abhor? The musical unfolds as a series of flashbacks leading to an explosive conclusion: Fritz goes insane; his sister, Elisabeth, allies with the Nazis; and his love, Lou Salomé, wrestles with fate—how far will you go to set the record straight?

Et Alia Theater Presents Blood Orange by Abigail Duclos

September 13 - September 27, 2025

A pale blue background with orange lettering reads Blood Orange by Abigail Duclos. In the foreground there is a pair of bloody hands holding an orange slice.

Blood Orange tells the story of Faye, a teenage girl who, after discovering her father’s body and feeling abandoned by God and her mother, turns to a nightmarish roadkill creature for salvation, drawing her awkward friend Eden into a strange, fervent religion filled with prayer, blood, and budding love.
The play delves into grief as an ugly, intricate, and biting experience, examining the complexities of modern teenage girlhood and sexuality and asking vital yet often overlooked questions: How do young women navigate a culture that hypersexualizes them while demonizing their desires? What happens when the hunt for pleasure intertwines with pain?

Cast: Luísa Galatti, Ana Moioli, Maria Müller, Giorgia Valenti

SETU Presents When Gandhi and Mohammed Meet

November 20 - November 23

A split screen background of red a purple with the outline of two men on eitherside. In the middle there is a woman on the left side she wears hijab on the right side she wears a bindi . The title reads When Gandhi and Mohammed Meet. A thought provoking journey into interfaith marriage love beyond barriers and shared humanity!

Neel Gandhi from London and Mohammed Aslam from New Delhi meet at a scientific conference in Bangalore, both facing intense opposition from families and friends in their planned interfaith marriages to their girlfriends. This gripping drama delves into the profound religious divides within Indian society and beyond, culminating in a surprising twist that reveals the artificial barriers that undermine our shared humanity and challenge the essence of pure faith and spirituality.
