Video Watch: Get a 1st Look at Cecily Strong, David Zayas, and More in Brooklyn Laundry Off-Broadway

The new work from Doubt playwright John Patrick Shanley opens Off-Broadway February 28 via Manhattan Theatre Club.

Opening night is around the corner for Manhattan Theatre Club's Off-Broadway world premiere of John Patrick Shanley's new play Brooklyn Laundry, and a first look at the production has just been released. Watch highlights from the new play, opening February 28 at New York City Center's Stage I, above.

SNL and Schmigadoon! alum Cecily Strong stars as Fran, opposite David Zayas (Cost of Living) as Owen, Florencia Lozano (One Life to Live) as Trish, and Andrea Syglowski (Pass Over) as Susie. Understudies Janie Brookshire, Adriana DeMeo, and Alfredo Diaz round out the company. Casting is by Kelly Gillespie of Caparelliotis Casting.

Directed by Shanley himself, the work centers on three sisters and a guy who run a Brooklyn laundry, and the "savage tricks life plays on them," according to press notes. The world premiere features scenic design by Santo Loquasto, costume design by Suzy Benzinger, lighting design by Brian MacDevitt, and original music and sound design by John Gromada.

Manhattan Theatre Club is currently hosting the Broadway premiere for Joshua Harmon's Prayer for the French Republic, through March 3 at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre. Amy Herzog's Mary Jane will play the Friedman in the spring starring Rachel McAdams. Brooklyn Laundry is the company's only announced Off-Broadway show for 2024 so far.
