A woman leans down from the left side of them image to kiss a man wearing a beanie. Bold simple white lettering reads The Map Presents IF WE KISS to the right of them overlapping the edge of the man. Yellow words read By Rachel Vail, Directed by Zackary Elkind. A black stripe at the bottom of the page, white lettering reads Mezzanine Theatre at A.R.T./NY Theaters

What’s the story of your first kiss? 

Charlie’s hasn’t happened yet. She’s a high school junior in 2003 and has no interest in kissing. But when this boy Kevin stops her as they get off the bus to school, she suddenly realizes that kissing might be the best thing ever invented (with the possible exception of gummy bears). But things get more complicated when Charlie’s best friend Tess falls in love with Kevin… and even worse when Charlie’s mom and Kevin’s dad start getting involved. A 90-minute romantic comedy about first kisses and new families, IF WE KISS is full of the joy, heartbreak, humiliation, and exhilaration of falling in love.

Pan Asian Rep presents AI YAH GOY VEY! 

January 29 - March 1

Two wooden chopsticks are shown over a light tan background. Red and Blue lettering reads AI YAH GOY VEY! Adventures of a Dim Sun In Search of His Wanton Father

In Ai Yah Goy Vey!, a country bumpkin delivers Chinese takeout food in New York City’s diverse neighborhoods while seeking his long-lost Papa who dumped his Chinese Opera diva-Mama. Colorful characters offer clues in a “Looney Tunes” whodunit that combines standup comedy, musical theatre, dance, opera and puppetry. By playing on cultural similarities, the show shatters absurd assumptions to celebrate the diversity and one-ness of the human race.

Playwright: Richard Chang
Director: Laura Josepher

Try/Step/Trip is a concept musical performed in the body through the choreographic language of step. The story follows the journey of a music man as he re-imagines his experience in a court-ordered drug rehabilitation program. Inspired by Brathwaite’s own history, Try/Step/Trip is a rite of passage orchestrated to save one of the justice system’s newest inductees from the ultimate plight of criminalization: to be remade in the image of its judgment. World views are delivered within musical numbers, ancestors are conjured through step, and archetypes are sampled from pop culture and folklore, all to guide a familiar young Black man in his unique search for redemption and self-definition.

      

                                                        

 

The Other Side of Silence Presents Our House by Barry Boehm

February 28 - March 21

The background is a row of houses at night the houses to the left and right are in black and white. The center house is in color with a wide front porch. Above the house pink lettering reads Our House, a new play by Barry Boehm. Opening February 28, 2026.

Our House is About Family.

Set in Iowa the year before marriage equality is recognized by the Supreme Court, Andy, an ACT-Up NY veteran and his husband are hosting the wedding of their Nephew Brendan to Eugene, who is African American.

The happy occasion is threatened when the young couple venture out into the neighborhood and a confrontation with locals force this modern family to face some hard facts about what it takes to make everyone feel safe in “our house.”

It's a hopeful comedy packed with honest truths - similar in style to HBO’s “Somebody Somewhere.”
