The Broadway Debut of Becky Shaw!
Alden Ehrenreic wins the 2026 Tony Award for Best Performance by an Actor in Featured Role in a Play!
Get ready for Broadway's next must-see hit! Becky Shaw, the darkly hilarious and sharply witty comedy from the Pulitzer Prize finalist Gina Gionfriddo, is making its Broadway debut! Full of twisted romance, unforgettable characters and razor-sharp humor, this 2026 Tony Nominee promises an evening of laughs, surprises and irresistible drama.
From their first blind date, which includes an unscheduled visit to the police station, this couple, along with the newlyweds who set them up, surprise us "and themselves" in a comedy thriller The New York Times called "as engrossing as it is ferociously funny, like a big box of fireworks fizzing and crackling across the stage!". This play asks what we owe the people we love the most and the strangers who land on our doorstep. A 2009 Pulitzer Prize finalist.
