Second Stage Theater will soon present Jordan Harrison’s MARJORIE PRIME on Broadway, directed by Tony Award Nominee and Obie Award-winner Anne Kauffman. MARJORIE PRIME was a finalist for the 2015 Pulitzer Prize. This production will mark Mr. Harrison’s Broadway debut.
The MARJORIE PRIME company will feature Tony Award-winner Danny Burstein (Gypsy, Moulin Rouge! The Musical), Christopher Lowell (Cult of Love), Two-time Tony Award-winner Cynthia Nixon (The Gilded Age, Sex and The City, The Little Foxes), and Academy Award nominee June Squibb (Eleanor the Great, Thelma, original production of Gypsy) in the title role of Marjorie Prime.
What would you say to someone you lost, if you could see them again? What if they’re a better listener now than when they were alive? Pulitzer Prize finalist Jordan Harrison reinvents the family drama in his richly spare, wryly funny, and powerful MARJORIE PRIME, directed by Tony Award® nominee Anne Kauffman (Mary Jane). A heart-achingly beautiful rumination on aging and artificial intelligence, memory and mortality, love and legacy, MARJORIE PRIME examines the blurred line between a life lived and a life remembered.
