Overview
- MCC Theater will present the world premiere of ANON: A Tempest at Our Kitchen Table by Anne Washburn in a limited Off‑Broadway run from September 25 to November 1 with opening night set for October 14 at the Newman Mills Theater.
- The announced principal cast is led by Jeremy Shamos and includes Jeff Biehl, Crystal Finn, Andrew Garman, and Izabel Mar.
- Anne Kauffman, an Obie Award winner and Tony nominee, will direct the production.
- The creative team features Obie- and Tony-recognized designers: scenic design by dots, costumes by Brenda Abbandandolo, lighting by Cha See, sound by Tei Blow, projections by Jared Mezzocchi, and props supervision by Andrew Diaz.
- The play centers on a Texas suburb conflict triggered by a publicly displayed gay pride flag and filtered through a TikToker’s online life, a premise that positions the premiere as a topical season opener for MCC’s 40th anniversary and one likely to shape Off‑Broadway conversations about community and social media.
