When Maddie is forced to seek the help of her long-estranged mother, she finds herself unable to shield her daughter Caroline from the inescapable circumstances that fractured their family. A world premiere play by PRESTON MAX ALLEN (WE ARE THE TIGERS), directed by Tony Award Winner DAVID CROMER (DEAD OUTLAW, GOOD NIGHT, AND GOOD LUCK), CAROLINE is a luminous and intimate story about the possibility of redemption and the complex relationships between generations of mothers and daughters.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Caroline
Caroline: A Quiet Gem
9 / 10
There are some plays which foster such a degree of intimacy that you feel like you’re eavesdropping on private interactions rather than watching a performance. Such is the case with Preston Max Allen’s drama receiving its world premiere at MCC Theater. Depicting the interactions between a young mother, her precocious 9-year-old child, and the child’s grandmother, Caroline is the sort of small-scale family drama that packs a big emotional punch.
'Caroline' Off-Broadway review — Chloë Grace Moretz leads a powerful cast in this emotional family drama
8 / 10
Three powerful performances under the direction of David Cromer (Dead Outlaw) make up for the script's shortcomings. Stylish and steely, Landecker recalls the detached mom in Ordinary People. Lipe-Smith’s work feels natural, never forced. Moretz shines from start to finish as she summons a deep well of anxiety and hurt.
