Story for Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune
New York Times Critic’s Pick
Six-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald and two-time Academy Award and Tony Award nominee Michael Shannon turn up the heat as two lonely souls who meet for a one-night-stand—but discover a connection deeper than they ever expected. Over a night filled with intimate thoughts and outlandish coincidences, meatloaf sandwiches and moonlit dreams, piano suites and the sweetest talk, they realize that making love is easy—falling in love is hard.
Get swept off your feet at Terrence McNally’s Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune, directed by downtown visionary Arin Arbus. It’s more than a one-night-stand. It’s one night of theater you’ll never forget.
