SEAGULLS ON SULLIVAN STREET takes place in the heart of New York City's Soho when the neighborhood's ethos was just beginning to fade. Lucy struggles to make sense of the harsh world she lives in whenever she opens a newspaper. Pete, a no-holds-barred bakery owner, feels cornered by his marriage to the fragile and unpredictable Lucy. He takes refuge at the neighborhood watering hole, where we meet Alex, a barkeep always willing to lend an attentive ear. Louie, seemingly challenged in a one-sided love affair with Lucy, and Natalie, Pete's paramour. In the aftermath of a tragic event, this eccentric community comes together along with Alex's partner, the insatiable Ruth, to grapple with understanding life's fragility, the lies we tell ourselves, and the illusions that sustain us.

Directed by Jean Wagner​ (The Notebook)​, the cast features Scott Cohen​ (CBS' East New York)​, Jasmine Carmichael​ (Amazon's Sneaky Pete)​, Maddie Corman​ (Next Fall)​, Sue Jean Kim​ (Office Hour, The Public)​, Timothy Britten Parker (1st Nat'l Tour Wicked),​ and​ Joanne Tucker​ (Showtime's American Rust and Billions)​.
