Full casting is announced for Mike Lew's Teenage Dick, running at the Public Theater June 12-July 15. The production, directed by Moritz von Stuelpnagel, is presented by Ma-Yi Theater Company in association with the Public.

Teenage Dick is a contemporary take on Richard III, reimagining the most famous disabled character of all time as a 16-year-old outsider in the deepest winter of his discontent: his junior year at Roseland High. The play was commissioned and developed by the Apothetae, a company dedicated to plays that explore and illuminate the "Disabled Experience."
