What begins as a theatrical thought experiment—six queer and trans performers imagining themselves into a world of inherited power and royal expectation—quickly becomes a gloriously profane and surprisingly tender love story.
Equal parts delicate and audacious, Prince Faggot takes on identity, inheritance, and all the beautiful, terrifying contradictions that come from living truthfully in a world built to contain you.
Jordan Tannahill’s Prince Faggot comes to Studio Seaview on the heels of a sold-out, critically acclaimed run at Playwrights Horizons/Soho Rep. Directed by Shayok Misha Chowdhury, the production earned a New York Times “Critic’s Pick” and was hailed as “a horny, thought-provoking play that’s as academic as it is avant-garde” (Cosmopolitan), “thrilling” (The New York Times), and “one of the year’s best new plays” (The Wrap).
