MCC Theater presents its first production of its 30th Anniversary Season, All the Ways to Say I Love You, a new play by Neil LaBute, directed by Leigh Silverman and starring Tony and Emmy Award winner Judith Light in a one-woman tour de force.
All The Ways To Say I Love You marks Neil LaBute's 10th full-length 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 MCC following her performances in Margaret Edson's Wit in 1999 and Laura Wade's Colder Than Here in 2005, as well as having been honored at MCC's annual Miscast Gala in 2013. She is currently celebrating an Emmy nomination for her work in the groundbreaking Amazon series "Transparent." Director Leigh Silverman was last seen at MCC with Coraline in 2009.
Mrs. 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, Mrs. Johnsonslowly 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.
