Live Capture of George Street Playhouse's MY LORD, WHAT A NIGHT Will Stream
Performances will continue for a limited engagement through Sunday May 17, 2026.
George Street Playhouse will partner with the League of Live Stream Theater (LOLST) to broadcast its acclaimed production of My Lord, What a Night during the final weekend of performances.
Written by Deborah Brevoort (Blue Moon Over Memphis) and directed by Sheldon Epps (Play On!), My Lord, What a Night began previews on Tuesday April 28, 2026, and opened Friday May 1, for a limited engagement through Sunday May 17, 2026, at George Street Playhouse (11 Livingston Avenue, New Brunswick, NJ 08901).
Said Edgar Herrera, George Street Playhouse Executive Director, "GSP has made My Lord, What a Night the most accessible production in our history through six Choose Your Price performances, Spanish open captioned performances, and now with this streaming opportunity. We're delighted audiences anywhere can experience our extraordinary production and its timely message, especially those who may not otherwise be able to attend."
GSP has previously partnered with the LOLST on its productions of Gene & Gilda and The Club. While those productions were broadcast live, My Lord, What a Night has been previously captured live and will stream concurrently with live performance times. Streamed performances will be Friday May 15 at 2pm, Saturday May 16 at 7:30pm, and Sunday May 17 at 2pm.
Streaming tickets are $39 and include 24-hour on-demand replay following each performance. Streaming tickets are available at lolst.org/whatanight.
Princeton, 1937. When world-famous contralto Marian Anderson is turned away from a hotel because of her race, she finds an unexpected host in Albert Einstein. What begins as a simple act of hospitality grows into a unique friendship between two brilliant minds—one that will resonate through history.
Based on true events, My Lord, What a Night offers an intimate look at the meeting of these two icons and the events that ignited Anderson’s legendary performance on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
The cast of My Lord, What a Night includes Rashidra Scott (Sunset Boulevard, Company) as Marian Anderson, Anthony Cochrane (“The Good Fight”) as Albert Einstein, Mitch Greenberg (November 4) as Albert Flexner and Gayle Samuels (Chiaroscuro) as Mary Church Terrell.
My Lord, What a Night features scenic design by Megan Rahm (Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?), costume design by Karen Perry (Lackawanna Blues), lighting design by Jeff Croiter and Katy Atwell (Broadway Backwards 2025), sound design by John Gromada (Fallen Angels) and projection design by John Narun (Bughouse). Casting is by McCorkle Casting. Samantha Flint (GSP’s Ebenezer Scrooge’s Big Jersey Christmas Show) is Production Stage Manager.
The live performance schedule for My Lord, What a Night is as follows: Thursday & Saturday at 7:30pm; Thursday-Sunday at 2pm.
