Pulitzer Prize winner's new drama smashes Off Broadway in April 2026
Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner John Patrick Shanley (Doubt) pens this searing new drama, roaring to its Off Broadway premiere at the Chain Theater this April. Focusing on three women whose lives are suddenly smashed together with shocking consequences, The Pushover is a dark, twisty and ferocious drama from an absolute master of the craft.
Three extraordinary women are about to have their lives altered forever. At a remote spa in New Mexico, they have a meeting that binds them together. As their passions and their fury combine and build on each other, they find themselves in a shared battle to survive the brutalities that life has thrust upon them. A battle that will carry them from New Mexico to a little restaurant in New York, in a journey that will have consequences none of them could have foreseen.
