Stephen Karam News

Roundabout Theatre Company is thrilled to announce a two-week extension of the acclaimed premiere of Speech & Debate now through Sunday, December 30.

Stephen Karam's new play Speech & Debate, the inaugural production in the Roundabout Theatre Company's Black Box Theatre directed by Jason Moore, emphasizes the significant role of The Outsider. Sarah Steele embodies Diwata, an ambitious and dorky theatre-obsessed girl in Salem, Oregon longing for her turn in the spotlight. Not finding it easy to be cast in her school shows, Diwata uses her personal podcasts and her school's budding Speech and Debate team to showcase her skills. But beyond her nerdy grin, Diwata and her new friends find themselves entangled in a web of keeping secrets and profound trust. Sarah Steele talks about her character and this deeply enjoyable and powerfully current new play.

It would almost be understandable if someone found the New York Musical Theatre Festival tough to negotiate - finding your way through almost eighty different shows and events and 296 performances would be tough for anyone! So - all of us NYMFettes here have decided to put together a 'taste-test' list, so you can break down the Festival into more bite-sized chunks.
