House of McQueen
Luke Newton (Bridgerton) plays the highly theatrical British fashion designer Alexander McQueen and Broadway vet Emily Skinner plays his mother—whose death preceded his suicide by a week—in a new bioplay by Darrah Cloud. Director Sam Helfrich's staging employs a thousand square feet of LED screens, along with more than a dozen performers, to create an immersive experience at a new performance space in Hudson Yards. Fashion queens may also appreciate a display of archival McQueen designs.Â
