2012-2013 Season
 directed by ensemble member K. Todd Freeman | Good Peopleby David Lindsay-AbaireDirected by ensemble member K. Todd Freeman Featuring ensemble members Alana Arenas, Mariann Mayberry, Molly Regan September 13 - November 11, 2012 When Margie Walsh loses her job at a South Boston dollar store, she reaches out to one-time flame Mike, a Southie boy who escaped the neighborhood. But Margie’s reconnection takes on new life when she realizes the power Mike’s past holds over his present. Penned by Pulitzer Prize-winner David Lindsay-Abaire, Good People is an incisive, funny study of Margie’s limits and whether Southie values can survive beyond the neighborhood. |
 directed by ensemble member Anna D. Shapiro | The Motherf**ker with the hatby Stephen Adly GuirgisDirected by ensemble member Anna D. Shapiro December 27, 2012 - March 3, 2013 Things are on the up-and-up for recovering alcoholic Jackie and girlfriend Veronica—until Jackie spots another man’s hat in their apartment and embarks on a sublimely incompetent criminal quest for vengeance. Fast-paced and uproarious, Mother asks probing questions about the havoc addiction wreaks. Ensemble member Anna D. Shapiro, director of the acclaimed Broadway premiere, returns to direct the Steppenwolf production. |
 with ensemble member Francis Guinan | The Birthday PArtyby Harold PinterDirected by ensemble member Austin Pendleton Featuring ensemble members Ian Barford, Francis Guinan, Moira Harris and John Mahoneywith Sophia Sinise January 24 - May 19, 2013 Petey, Meg and their long-time tenant Stanley live comfortably, if without particular flair, in a seaside boarding house in England. But their humdrum daily routine of cornflakes, newspapers and naps comes to a sudden end when two mysterious men appear, bringing with them menace, mystery and one overwhelming question: What exactly are they searching for? When the group gathers together to celebrate Stanley’s birthday, alliances are re-drawn, scandals are revealed and all are left teetering on a precipice. Lambasted by critics during its 1958 premiere, Nobel laureate Harold Pinter’s play has since gained a reputation as a twentieth-century dark-comic classic. |
 with ensemble member Alana Arenas | Head of Passesby ensemble member Tarell Alvin McCraneyDirected by ensemble member Tina Landau Featuring ensemble members Alana Arenas, K. Todd Freeman, Jon Michael Hill, Tim Hopper and James Vincent Meredith
The distant present, at the Mississippi River’s mouth. Shelah’s family and friends plan a surprise birthday party, but the festivities are overshadowed by revelations that point to a dark family secret. Ensemble members Tarell McCraney and Tina Landau—writer and director of Steppenwolf’s lauded The Brother/Sister Plays—team up again for this world premiere drama, told in McCraney’s sweeping, signature style. |
 with ensemble member Kate Arrington | Bellevilleby Amy HerzogDirected by Anne Kauffman Featuring ensemble members Alana Arenas and Kate Arrington June 27 - August 25, 2013 Twenty-something American expats Zack and Abby live an enviably hip, do-gooder existence in the up-and-coming neighborhood of Belleville, Paris. But a single encounter one morning in the apartment they rent from their Senegalese landlords Alioune and Amina tips the scales of their relationship, revealing that the bubble they've built abroad is much closer to bursting than it appears. Dubbed a "thrillingly good" drama with elements of a "nail-biting psychological thriller" by The New York Times, Herzog's play asks unsettling questions about upheaval and the power of a lie. |
