Sampling of productions:

DYING FOR IT
by MOIRA BUFFINI
a free adaptation of The Suicide by NIKOLAI ERDMAN
directed by NEIL PEPE

Following the acclaimed American premiere of Gabriel in 2010, Moira Buffini returns to Atlantic with an adaptation of this timely and riotous Soviet era farce by Nikolai Erdman.

Dying for It is the story of Semyon, a man down on his luck, married to a nag, and out of options. When he decides to throw in the towel and kill himself, a deluge of sympathetic visitors descends upon him, determined to make him a martyr for their many causes. Swept up in the firestorm of attention, Semyon does take matters into his own hands, but not quite in the fashion that everyone expects. An outrageous satire on the hypocrisy and illogic of Soviet life, this play was banned by Stalin before it ever saw the light of day, and is now regarded as an under-known 20th century classic comedy.

I'M GONNA PRAY FOR YOU SO HARD
a new play by HALLEY FEIFFER
directed by TRIP CULLMAN

Returning to Atlantic after her performance in last season¿s Women or Nothing, Halley Feiffer brings her daring and irreverent play to our Stage 2.

Ella is a precocious and fiercely competitive actress whose sole aim in life is making her famous playwright father David proud. Over the course of a boozy, drug-fueled evening, Ella and David deliberate over whether to read the reviews of her off-Broadway debut¿ and things unravel from there. Halley Feiffer¿s dark, probing and very funny new play pulls the audience into the middle of a deeply complicated relationship and sheds new light on the eternal struggles of parents and children to find common ground.
