Alexis Scheer's Breaking the Story will receive a world premiere staging Off-Broadway at Second Stage Theater's Tony Kiser Theater later this year.
Beginning performances May 15, the production, which will be directed by Jo Bonney, will officially open June 4. The upcoming limited engagement will mark Scheer's return to Second Stage, where her play Our Dear Dead Drug Lord premiered in 2019 in a co-production with WP Theater.
Breaking the Story centers on a foreign war correspondent named Marina. After returning from a particularly bloody conflict, she considers what a life of peace would look like, and what it would take to move forward from the trauma she has witnessed.
Casting and additional creative team members will be announced at a later date.
