About the Show
The lights are coming back up on one of independent theatre’s most vital institutions. After a nearly decade-long hiatus, the Midtown International Theatre Festival (MITF) officially announces its historic return to the New York stage. And it's not holding back. Plays on world affairs and sensitive matters pervade the festival, including Omeed's Tapestries (Barry Putt); Picking Up Stones (Sandra Laub); Americaring (Kate Gill); Monarch (Mayu Molina & Alfonso Molina); The Harm (Dennis Kangalee); Whatever (Scott Brooks); Pandimia (Jason Abrams); Shangri-La-La (Mike Meier and Peter Giambalvo); The Plans We Made (Dr. Danielle Bacibianco); Across a Crowded Room (F.J. Hartland); Briar Patch (Will Carter); Cool at Camp (Dani Tapper, Peter Weidman, Steven Blutig, Robin Raskin, and Emily Stumer)
