Open
About the Show
A
spellbinding story of love, loss, and the impossible—Open takes the
stage Off-Broadway July 8–27 as a recipient of the WP Space Program.
Presented by Midnight Theatricals, this electrifying production is
produced in association with The Tank and Flying Carpet Theatre Company.
Open is a New Georges Supported Production, with further support from
the Fiordellisi Williams Family Foundation.
A woman called The
Magician appears to perform tricks, but there’s no illusion—she’s
attempting the impossible: saving her partner, Jenny. OPEN is a
powerful, funny, and deeply moving play about love’s ability to defy
hate in magical ways.
Returning to the role she originated,
Megan Hill stars as The Magician, under the direction of Jessi D. Hill.
The show’s 2019 sold-out run at The Tank earned a New York Times
Critics’ Pick, with Elisabeth Vincentelli writing: “Kristen [The
Magician] executes magic tricks because she is the one who needs to
believe. The miracle this lovely show pulls out is that by the end, she
does — and so do we.”
Creative Team: Lighting & scenic
