Photo Flash: First Look at Richard Nelson's HUNGRY at The Public Theater

HUNGRY is running at The Public through Sunday, March 27 and officially opens on the day it is set, Friday, March 4. Check out a first look below!

The complete cast for THE GABRIELS: Election Year in the Life of One Family will feature Meg Gibson (Karin Gabriel), Lynn Hawley (Hannah Gabriel), Roberta Maxwell (Patricia Gabriel), Maryann Plunkett (Mary Gabriel), Jay O. Sanders (George Gabriel), and Amy Warren (Joyce Gabriel).

In the spirit of The Apple Family Plays and shining an important spotlight on the 2016 political election year, Tony Award-winning playwright and director Richard Nelson returns to The Public with his latest three-play cycle, THE GABRIELS. Subtitled Election Year in the Life of One Family, the first play in the cycle, HUNGRY, will introduce us to the Gabriels of Rhinebeck, New York. (The Gabriels live just around the corner from the Apple Family). These three new plays, which also include WHAT DID YOU EXPECT? and WOMEN OF A CERTAIN AGE, will track the lives of the Gabriels throughout the coming presidential election year with the final play opening in real time on Election Night, November 8, 2016.

To the rhythm of peeling, chopping and mixing, the first play in the cycle, HUNGRY, places us in the center of the Gabriels' kitchen. The family discusses their lives and disappointments, and the world at large and nearby, as they struggle against the fear of being left behind and the challenge to find resilience in the face of loss.
