at Circle in the Square Broadway Theatre (50th St. & 8th Ave)
The Langdon 12-Hour Festival is intended to give audiences an opportunity to view multiple play readings connected via one writer in a marathon setting. The event is structured with the mission of being an affordable day of art for audiences and a benefit for Circle in the Square Theatre School, combining the linked works of one of the industry’s finest writers with many of its brightest stars of stage and screen, all read in a Broadway theatre.
This year we have partnered with Tracy Letts to present selected works that span the course of his remarkable career. In our ongoing partnership with Circle in the Square Theatre School (the only conservatory connected to a Broadway theatre and our co-producer), this festival follows on the heels of the success of our previous festivals featuring the works of Beth Henley, John Patrick Shanley, and Leslye Headland.
