Teeth
_Teeth_ is a sharp tale of revenge and transformation that tears through a culture of shame and repressed desire one delightfully unhinged song at a time. The musical follows Dawn O’Keefe, an evangelical Christian teen struggling to be an exemplar of purity amongst her community of fellow Promise Keeper Girls. Her stepbrother, Brad - alienated by his repressive upbringing in the community led by his fanatical Pastor father and intrigued by the online camaraderie of the Truthseeker men’s support group—is haunted by an indelible incident from his and Dawn’s past. As Dawn’s desires become tested and twisted by the men in her life, she discovers a deadly secret not even she understands: when men violate her, her body bites back—literally. Crackling with irrepressible desire and ancient rage, _Teeth_ is a dark horror comedy conjuring the legend of one girl whose sexual curse may also be her salvation. <br> Garnering considerable acclaim upon its sold-out, twice extended bow in February 2024 at Playwrights Horizons, Sara Holdren of _Vulture_ wrote, “_Teeth_ feels like the musical equivalent of driving a spike-covered Mad Max car across the desert while getting chased by war boys on their way to Valhalla. It’s a rush—and it’s also a pitch-dark examination of the very real chokehold of Christofascist ideology in America.” Adam Feldman of _Time Out NY_ awarded _Teeth_ four stars, Zachary Stewart of _Theatermania_ described it as “a brilliant must-see musical,” and Brittani Samuel, reviewing for _The Washington Post_, deemed it “a brazen, unique, cackle-worthy slice of musical theater.”

Yellow Face
Tony Award ® winner and three-time Pulitzer finalist David Henry Hwang (_M. Butterfly_) will make his Roundabout debut with the Broadway premiere of Yellow Face, his hilarious is-he-or-isn’t-he comedy of identity, show business, and (perhaps) autobiography. Starring Daniel Dae Kim (_Lost_) as “DHH” and directed by Tony nominee Leigh Silverman (_Violet_). <br> Inspired by real events, the playwright’s fictionalized doppelgänger protests yellowface casting in _Miss Saigon_, only to mistakenly cast a white actor as the Asian lead in his own play. This Obie Award-winning and Pulitzer finalist play is a laugh-out-loud farce about the complexities of race.
