All Nighter, a new play by Natalie Margolin (The Power of Punctuation), begins previews at MCC Theater’s Newman Mills Theater February 25 ahead of a March 9 opening night Off-Broadway. Jaki Bradley (DiscOasis) directs the world premiere, which will continue through May 18.
The cast features Kristine Froseth (The Buccaneers), Tony nominee Kathryn Gallagher (Jagged Little Pill), Tony nominee Julia Lester (Into the Woods), Havana Rose Liu (Bottoms), and Alyah Chanelle Scott (The Sex Lives of College Girls). Tessa Albertson (Younger) and Olivia Puckett (Dear Evan Hansen) complete the company as understudies.
Set during finals week at a small liberal arts college in rural Pennsylvania, the play follows a tight-knit group of roommates as they pull one last all-nighter to complete their final assignments. Holed up in an old ballroom, the pressure mounts and the Adderall flows as the truths that bind the group together are put to the test.
All Nighter also has scenic design by Wilson Chin (Cost of Living), costume design by Michelle J. Li (Job), lighting design by Ben Stanton (Maybe Happy Ending), and sound design by M.L. Dogg (Gutenberg! The Musical!). Jo Fernandez is the production stage manager.
Ben Platt, Adam Mersel, Rachel Sussman for Soto Productions, and Runyonland are producing.
