Torch Song, now on Broadway for a strictly limited engagement.
Hilarious and heart-wrenching
Torch Song follows Arnold Beckoff’s odyssey to find happiness in New York. All he wants is a husband, a child and a pair of bunny slippers that fit, but a visit from his overbearing mother reminds him that he needs one thing more: respect.
Ben Brantley of
The New York Times calls it “Spectacular! A Grade-A energizing joy!” And
Entertainment Weekly raves, “
Torch Song brings laughter and tears simultaneously. It’s impossible not to feel electricity in the theater.” Don’t miss this “profoundly moving” (
The Hollywood Reporter) production of the Tony Award®-winning play, starring Drama Desk Award winner Michael Urie (
Younger,
Ugly Betty,
Buyer & Cellar) and Academy Award® and Tony winner Mercedes Ruehl (
The Fisher King,
Lost in Yonkers), directed by Tony nominee Moisés Kaufman (
The Laramie Project,
I Am My Own Wife).
Join Arnold on this all too human journey about the families we’re born into, the families we choose and the battles to bring them all home.
