Dog Day Afternoon

NOMINATED FOR 3 TONY AWARDS!

Step back into the sweltering summer of 1972, New York City—a time when the Vietnam War looms large, Watergate headlines flood the news, and one man’s desperate act captivates the nation. A Brooklyn bank hold-up quickly goes wrong, and with each gut-wrenching twist that unfolds, chaos ensues that ignites the city as they follow the actions of a man on the edge. Dog Day Afternoon is a raw, gritty reminder of what happens when passion and desperation collide.

A new play by Pulitzer Prize winner Stephen Adly Guirgis (Between Riverside and Crazy) based on the legendary true crime story that captivated audiences in the Oscar-winning motion picture. Directed by two-time Olivier Award winner Rupert Goold (King Charles III), Dog Day Afternoon stars Emmy Award winner Jon Bernthal (The Bear, The Walking Dead) as Sonny Amato and two-time Emmy Award winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Fantastic Four: First Steps, The Bear) as Sal DeSilva, both making their Broadway debuts.
