Ari Edelstein directs the new play from Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner Robert Schenkkan.
Performances are currently underway for Tony Award-winning playwright Robert Schenkkan's Building the Wall at New World Stages. Ari Edelstein directs the production, set to run through July 9.
The two-person political suspense thriller features James Badge Dale and Tamara Tunie. The story is described as a "provocative 90-minute theatrical event set in the near future and deals with one of the most talked about topics of this past election. In a time when campaign rhetoric turns into real policies, Building the Wall reveals the power of theater to question who we are and where we might be going."
The creative team includes scenic design by Antje Ellermann, lighting design by Tyler Micoleau, costume design by Georgie Lee, and sound design by Bart Fasbender.
