Take Me Out

New York, NY

Directed by Scott Ellis, this revival of the 2003 Tony Award-winning Best Play by Richard Greenberg celebrates the personal intricacies of baseball off of the field. When Darren Lemming, the star center fielder for the major league baseball team the Empires, comes out of the closet, his teammates reveal unspoken prejudices. Rockwell Group designed a stark, abstract, and gestural set.
