Named after the great American thespian Edwin Booth, this venue, built in 1913, is a relatively intimate playhouse (766 seats) nestled near Shubert Alley. Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's Sunday in the Park with George played here in 1984, and so did Robert Morse in Tru. More recently, the Booth was home to the Pulitzer Prize–winning musical Next to Normal and the Tony-winning revival of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Old hands Mia Farrow and Patti LuPone play an odd couple of cohabitants in Jen Silverman's one-act, two-lady comedy. One character is a mousy Iowa divorcée who takes on a boarder; the other is a vegan lesbian from the Bronx with a shady past. (Guess which actress plays which?) Recent Lifetime Achievement Tony winner Jack O'Brien directs the Braodway premiere of Jen Silverman's 2015 crowd-pleaser. Â
