The world premiere of The Michaels, a new play written and directed by Richard Nelson, opens at the Public Theater October 27 after beginning preview performances October 19. The production is scheduled to run through November 24.

In The Michaels, we are invited 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. The play is part of Nelson’s Rhinebeck Panorama, which includes The Apple Family Plays and The Gabriels, also seen at the Public.
