“JESSE WILLIAMS, JESSE TYLER FERGUSON, and PATRICK J. ADAMS pitch a perfect game!”
Greg Evans, Deadline
Critic’s Pick! “Take Me Out is funny, quite serious, and cerebral without undermining its emotion. A DELIGHTFUL AND PROVOCATIVE REVIVAL.”
Jesse Green, The New York Times
“An explosive 100-miles-an-hour drama!”
Johnny Oleksinski, New York Post
TAKE ME OUT at Second Stage Theater (Carole Rothman, President and Artistic Director; Khady Kamara, Executive Director) is a hit and has extended for two additional weeks on Broadway and will now run through Saturday, June 11th. Written by Richard Greenberg and directed by Scott Ellis, TAKE ME OUT officially opened to rave reviews on April 4th at Second Stage’s Hayes Theater (240 West 44th Street).
TAKE ME OUT features Patrick J. Adams, Julian Cihi, Hiram Delgado, Brandon J. Dirden, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Carl Lundstedt, Ken Marks, Michael Oberholtzer, Eduardo Ramos, Tyler Lansing Weaks, and Jesse Williams.
In the Tony Award®-winning TAKE ME OUT, playwright Richard Greenberg celebrates the personal and professional intricacies of America’s favorite pastime. When Darren Lemming (Jesse Williams), the star center fielder for the Empires, comes out of the closet, the reception off the field reveals a barrage of long-held unspoken prejudices. Facing some hostile teammates and fraught friendships, Darren is forced to contend with the challenges of being a gay person of color within the confines of a classic American institution. As the Empires struggle to rally toward a championship season, the players and their fans begin to question tradition, their loyalties, and the price of victory.
The full creative team for TAKE ME OUT includes scenic design by David Rockwell, costume design by Linda Cho, lighting design by Kenneth Posner, sound design by Bray Poor, and casting by Jim Carnahan.
