Carrie Coon & Namir Smallwood in BUG - December 2025 at MTC Friedman

This is quite the nice surprise drop into the season.

HELL yes. I saw this at Steppenwolf and loved it. I had heard rumblings of a transfer, but I thought it was dead in the water.

She's come home at last, to her people in the dark.

I'd rather see her in August: Osage, but this is wonderful news!

I really enjoyed her performance in Mary Jane off Broadway at NYTW and love her on The Gilded Age. I’m looking forward to seeing her in this!

Looks like MTC going to add Yondr pouches because of the play's content advisory (sex/nudity).

I have trip to Broadway in November, so I need this to stay put until April when I come back. Please. 🙏🏼

Excited for this! We usually make a trip the 2nd weekend of January and it’s a lovely time, no crowds and cheaper hotel rates.

It won't be until right before the start of previews, 30 under 35 for Punch aren't even on sale yet

I am seeing many shows in October in NYC. I will definitely go to the box office at the Friedman and report back in this thread (if still available)

Long shot, but I hope this sells out and gets the Appropriate/Take Me Out treatment by getting picked up by commercial producers and transferring to another theatre.

MTC transferred Time Stands Still and Venus in Fur to commercial runs in recent-ish memory, so the company certainly has precedent. Having a major awards season contender at the center certainly helps, and Carrie Coon’s star is very much on the rise.

It wouldn't be impossible for Coon to do both. Audra was filming Gilded during the day and playing Gypsy at night. Of course Coon has a bigger part than Audra on the Gilded Age.

But they will probably just do the limited run and call it a day. Maybe a week or two extension.

I'm still waiting for the Punch email; anyone get that one yet?
