I originally made this database of theater to see in NYC for myself but friends have asked me to share so I made this shareable document! I try to update it as often as I can, and it includes both Broadway and off-broadway shows.

My friend’s stepson was super involved in producing this play when it was off Broadway; now it’s been promoted to The Show (Helen Hayes Theatre). Incredible to think he just turned 30. I sure as hell wasn't producing a Broadway show back then!
It concerns Jane (a traumatized content moderator working in the Bay for an unnamed tech company, played with panache by Sydney Lemmon, Jack’s granddaughter) and her assigned therapist Loyd (starring Peter Friedman of “Succession” fame) - 90 minutes, just the two of them on stage, deep in dialogue about the mental hazards of her job and the relative remove of his professional “connecting trauma A to trauma D.” She’s a Zoomer, he’s a Boomer. Add tension. Stir.
Having spent the last decade living in Berkeley working in tech, this is all pretty on-the-nose for me.
I loved it. There’s quite a plot twist here too. Go see it before it closes in September! The play’s the thing.
