Last year, David Stallings' The Baby Monitor played in our Season and has since been presented on two international stages. The production was taken to Ireland for the Dublin International Gay Theater Festival where it was nominated for 4 awards. Most recently the play was featured in Belgrade's National Theater as part of their first ever Pride Theater Festival.

Addy and Uno, a children's musical that explores living with disabilities, first opened at Theater at the 14th Street Y in 2017 as part of one of the first fully curated seasons. Following its successful run, Addy and Uno transferred Off-Broadway to Theater Row where it has been playing since 2017. Addy and Uno has been featured on ABC 7 New York, NBC, Playbill, Now This News, and more.
