This September, MCC Theater will kick off their 2016-17 season with the world premiere of Neil LaBute's All the Ways to Say I Love You, directed by Leigh Silverman and featuring Judith Light. Previews begin September 6, with opening night set for September 28, 2016.

Today, two-time Tony Award Judith Light spoke with GOOD MORNING AMERICA about about her return to Broadway in a frank discussion about acting, aging and how to recreate yourself. "There is definitely stage fright, there's no question about that, but there is also excitement," says the actor of her latest project. Watch the interview below!

In ALL THE WAYS TO SAY I LOVE YOU, Faye Johnson is a high school English teacher and guidance counselor in a long-time, loving marriage. As she recounts her experiences with a favored student from her past, Faye slowly reveals the truth that is hidden just beneath the surface details of her life. All the Ways to Say I Love You is a solo play about love, hard choices, and the cost of fulfilling an all-consuming desire.

All The Ways To Say I Love You marks Neil LaBute's 10th play produced by MCC in a 15-year collaboration that includes some of the playwright's seminal works: Fat Pig, The Mercy Seat, The Distance from Here, and reasons to be pretty, the latter of which transferred to Broadway and received a Tony nomination for Best Play.Judith Light, an MCC mainstay onstage and off, returns to the Lortel following her performances in Margaret Edson'sWit and Laura Wade'sColder Than Here. Leigh Silverman was last seen at MCC with Coraline.
