From Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning writer David Lindsay-Abaire (Kimberly Akimbo) and Tony-winning director Kenny Leon comes the world premiere of this wild new play, opening on Broadway in Spring 2026. Following the cut-throat antics of a Neighborhood Association and the uproar caused by a newcomer, The Balusters will be playing at the Samuel J Friedman Theatre as part of Manhattan Theatre Club's 2025/26 Season.
Meet the Vernon Point Neighborhood Association. They really care about their town... possibly too much. The smallest issues cause massive spats. But these fights will seem like nothing when a new member suggests the addition of a stop sign. Things are about to go nuclear. This wicked examination of a small town community is a riotous spiral into chaos, penned by the expert hand of Lindsay-Abaire.
Please note: The producers can't guarantee the appearance of any performers on any specific date.
