A NEW TIMELY SOLO COMEDY
WRITTEN AND PERFORMED BY KIRK McGEE
DEVELOPED WITH AND DIRECTED BY COREY ATKINS
AT CHAIN THEATRE (312 WEST 36TH STREET)
MARCH 2 - 5, 2022
Off-Broadway premiere! How does a hapless tour guide juggle a Senator’s lofty legacy with his litany of sex scandals? That’s the question at the heart of the seriously funny one-man show, The Honorable Herbert Peabody, written and performed by Kirk McGee (Chasing Taste, “The Path,” “Sesame Street”), and developed with and directed by Corey Atkins (Lincoln Center Theatre, Cleveland Play House, The Acting Company). Following an Omicron-related postponement, the limited engagement is now set to begin Wednesday, March 2, 2022 at 7:00PM through Saturday evening, March 5, 2022 at Chain Theatre (312 West 36th Street, 4th Floor).
The Honorable Herbert Peabody is a very funny show about a very serious issue. It’s opening day of the Honorable Herbert Peabody Library and Legacy Center, and a well-intentioned tour guide named Joe finds himself stuck juggling the narrative of the Senator’s lofty legacy with a recently revealed litany of sex scandals. Faced with an increasingly disgruntled tour group—and a new understanding of his own actions—Joe must decide if he’s going to continue to stand idly by, or finally stand on the right side of history.
ON SALE NOW: Tickets for The Honorable Herbert Peabody are priced at $20 and may be purchased online at www.ThePeabodyPlay.com.

8) Broadway Choreographer Liza Gennaro Featured at The Players
for Exclusive Book Talk and Signing
Broadway choreographer Liza Gennaro will lead a talk and signing for her new book Making Broadway Dance at The Players, a historic membership club in a Gramercy Park South Gothic Revival mansion, on March 2, 2022. The Players was founded in 1888 and has always been a club of artists and arts lovers. Players were here before Broadway became Broadway, making this a fitting union of author and organization. This members-only event aligns with the Club’s continued celebration of the richness of creative communities with exclusive events and relaxed socializing.
Making Broadway Dance landed the #1 position on two of Amazon’s key book charts – Dance Hot Releases and Music Hot Releases – in early December. Through in-depth analysis of musical theatre choreography and choreographers, the book challenges long-held perceptions of Broadway dance as a kitsch and disposable dance form created without artistic process and demonstrates that the art form is not a monolith but is rather multifaceted in terms of dance styles, aesthetics and methodologies. Making Broadway Dance is available for purchase on Amazon or through Oxford University Press.
Aimed at students, academics, and anyone who loves musical theatre and dance, Making Broadway Dance by Manhattan School of Music’s Dean of Musical Theatre Liza Gennaro gives valuable insights into how Broadway dance is made. Gennaro examines choreography for musical theatre through the lens of dance studies, script analysis, movement research, and dramaturgical inquiry, and in doing so gives a close-up look at a dance form that has been analyzed only superficially until now.
Making Broadway Dance is available for purchase on Amazon or Oxford University Press.

LIMITED RUN THROUGH MARCH 27, 2022
AT A.R.T./NEW YORK THEATRES
TICKETS AVAILABLE NOW AT PIPELINETHEATRE.ORG
Pipeline Theatre Company (Natalie Gershtein, Producing Artistic Director) is proud present the world premiere of Bruise & Thorn by C. Julian Jiménez (Bundle of Sticks), formerly known as J. Julian Christopher, and directed by Jesse Jou (Say You Heard My Echo). Bruise & Thorn begins previews in the Mezzanine Theatre at A.R.T./New York Theatres (502 West 53rd Street) on March 4, 2022, and officially opens on March 13, for a limited run through March 27, 2022.
Bruise and Thorn are Nuyorican, queer, and tired af of their jobs at a busted-up laundromat in Jamaica, Queens. But not for long: Bruise is saving up to become a chef (like on “Chopped!”), and Thorn spits bars on street corners, one “America's Got Talent” audition away from becoming the Boricua Nikki Minaj. When the laundromat's basement turns out to be an illegal cockfighting ring, the cousins can't tell if this is an opportunity to cash out and become their most fabulous selves—or a trap to keep them locked into what everyone expects them to be.
Pipeline Theatre Company is committed to making their production of Bruise & Thorn affordable and accessible to everyone. Recognizing the economic strain that many have suffered under COVID, and in order to make sure that price is not a barrier to attendance, tickets are priced in three tiers. Starting at $5 for previews and $10 for performances (after March 13), and ranging up to $60 for premium seating, the new model allows patrons to choose the price they can afford. Additionally, a discount code will be made available to residents of Jamaica, Queens allowing them to purchase Tier 1 tickets at a reduced price point—$1 for previews and $5 for performances after March 13. Tickets are available now pipelinetheatre.org/tickets.
The performance schedule for Bruise & Thorn is as follows: Wednesday-Sunday at 7PM; Saturday at 2PM. Exceptions: there will be no 2PM performance on Saturday March 5. The performances on Sunday March 6 and Friday March 11 will be at 2PM, not 7PM.

Entry will be denied for guests who do not provide the documentation as required above.
Other health & safety requirements may be required in addition to the vaccine. See further details on the Health & Safety Protocols.
The only exceptions are for guests who need reasonable accommodations due to a medical exception or a sincerely held religious belief. In these cases, guests must provide proof of ONE of the following instead of evidence of vaccination:
- Negative COVID-19 PCR test performed by a medical provider within 72 hours of the performance start time. The test results must clearly show the date and time of the test.
OR
- Negative COVID-19 rapid antigen test taken within 6 hours of the performance start time. The test results must clearly show the date and time of the test. This test may be performed by a medical professional or by using an over-the-counter testing kit.
MASK REQUIREMENTS
Masks are required for all guests, regardless of vaccination status. Masks must be worn at all times while visiting the Theatre except when eating or drinking in designated areas. All masks must completely cover the nose and mouth and comply with the CDC guidelines for acceptable face coverings.
Recognizing flexibility is key in our guests’ return to Broadway. As a result of COVID-19, Nederlander is implementing an exchange and refund policy for guests of all of its venues in NYC. This policy will provide flexibility in the event a guest may be unable to attend a show due to illness, travel restrictions, or any other circumstances. Our guests may feel confident purchasing tickets in advance knowing this exchange or refund policy is in effect if they cannot attend the date and time originally purchased. When you request an exchange or a refund, the request will be approved with no questions asked and no additional service fees assessed provided the request meets the terms and conditions outlined herein. For more information on the refund and exchange policy visit www.broadwaydirect.com/exchanges-refunds/.
