Time Out says

The Broadway home of Manhattan Theatre Club since 2001, the Friedman is one of the increasing number of venues run by nonprofit organizations (others include the Roundabout Theatre Company and Lincoln Center Theater). This cozy 903-seat space has a relaxing basement lounge and ample aisles, making entrances and exits relatively easy. Originally named the Biltmore, it was rechristened in 2008 for the pioneering publicist Samuel J. Friedman. Since it is run by MTC, you can expect subscriber crowds to be there, checking out new plays and revivals. Historic pre-MTC productions include My Sister Eileen (1940), Barefoot in the Park (1963) and Deathtrap (1982).

What’s on

Mary Jane

  • Drama

Rachel McAdams (The Notebook) plays as the single mother of a severely disabled child in Amy Herzog’s exquisitely empathetic portrait of everyday strength, which won the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Play; Herzog shows the strain of the situation, but also succeeds in dramatizing kindness, attentiveness, honesty, connection. Anne Kauffman, who directed the play's flawless 2017 production at New York Theatre Workshop, returns to helm the Broadway premiere for Manhattan Theatre Club; original cast members Susan Pourfar and Brenda Wehle reprise their supporting roles, now joined by April Matthis and Lily Santiago. ,
