    “Be prepared to laugh hysterically!” – Broadway World

    From hit television writer and producer Bekah Brunstetter (This is Us, Switched at Birth) comes The Cake, a play about Della, a North Carolina baker and devout Christian whose best friend's daughter is returning home to plan her wedding. When Della discovers that the girl she helped to raise is engaged to marry another woman, she must decide whether or not she can bake a wedding cake topped with two brides.

  • Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol

    Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol

    Adapted by Jefferson Mays, Susan Lyons & Michael Arden
    Performed by Jefferson Mays
    Directed by Michael Arden

    Tony Award-winner Jefferson Mays (I Am My Own Wife) brings new life to the greatest ghost story ever told. While the heart of A Christmas Carol is evergreen, Mays' fresh perspective on Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and the rest will create a wildly theatrical and original experience. With a world premiere adaptation based on a version Dickens performed throughout his life, the holidays come early to the Geffen this year.

    Two-time Tony Award-winner Brian Dennehy comes to the Geffen as Erie Smith in Eugene O'Neill's Hughie and as Krapp in Samuel Beckett's Krapp's Last Tape.
