| Manhattan Theatre Club Announces Two-Week Extension For The Broadway Premiere of MARY JANE Starring Academy Award Nominee Rachel McAdams Now Through June 16 A person with long brown hair Description automatically generated By Pulitzer Prize finalist Amy Herzog Directed by Anne Kauffman With April Matthis, Susan Pourfar, Lily Santiago, Brenda Wehle Manhattan Theatre Club (Lynne Meadow, Artistic Director and Chris Jennings, Executive Director) are pleased to announce a two-week extension for the Broadway premiere of Mary Jane, written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Amy Herzog (A Doll's House, An Enemy of the People), starring Academy Award® nominee and Critics Choice Award winner Rachel McAdams, and directed by Anne Kauffman (The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window). The production will now play through Sunday, June 16 at MTC's Samuel J. Friedman Theatre (261 West 47th Street). The cast of Mary Jane also features April Matthis (The Piano Lesson), Susan Pourfar (Tribes), Lily Santiago ("La Brea"), and Brenda Wehle ("The Gilded Age"). Academy Award nominee Rachel McAdams stars in the Broadway premiere of Mary Jane , written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Amy Herzog. Captivating, affecting and compassionate, it's the story of a single mother in an impossible family situation. Faced with seemingly insurmountable odds, Mary Jane relies on unflagging optimism and humor, along with the wisdom of the women around her who have become a makeshift family, to take on each new day. But will inner strength and newfound friendships be enough to see her through? The creative team for Mary Jane includes Lael Jellinek (Set Design), Brenda Abbandandolo (Costume Design), Ben Stanton (Lighting Design), Leah Gelpe (Sound Design), J. Jared Janas (Hair, Wig & Make-up Design), Caparelliotis Casting & Kelly Gillespie (Casting), Kate Wilson (Vocal Coach), and Narda E. Alcorn (Production Stage Manager). The 2022-23 season marked Lynne Meadow's 50th Anniversary as Artistic Director of Manhattan Theatre Club. Meadow was joined in summer 2023 by Chris Jennings, MTC's new Executive Director. MTC's mission, which Meadow created in 1972 and has implemented over five decades of award-winning theatrical productions, is to develop and present new work in a dynamic, supportive environment; to identify and collaborate with the most promising new as well as seasoned, accomplished artists; and to produce a diverse repertoire of innovative, entertaining, and thought-provoking plays and musicals by American and international playwrights. Since 1989, MTC Education, which uses the power of live theatre and playwriting to awaken minds, ignite imaginations, open hearts, and change lives, has also been an important corollary to MTC's work, reaching thousands of students and educators worldwide each season. Since its beginnings on East 73rd Street in New York City, MTC has grown from a small off-off-Broadway showcase theatre into one of the country's most prestigious and award-winning producing companies, creating over 600 world, American, New York and Broadway premieres. MTC productions have earned 7 Pulitzer Prizes, 28 Tony Awards, 50 Drama Desk Awards and 49 Obie Awards amongst many other honors. MTC has homes on Broadway at its Samuel J. Friedman Theatre (261 West 47th Street) and Off-Broadway at New York City Center (131 West 55th Street).
