If you weren't paying attention, you might've missed it: over the summer, a new theater opened in Bushwick and, in the few months since, it has been hosting shows while earning the trust of locals through its groundbreaking performances and in-depth post-show discussions.

The Gracemoon Arts Theater, located at 13 Grattan Street off the Morgan Street L stop, focuses on productions that explore the human condition but also hosts talks about the way art affects us physically, mentally and socially, among other programming.

This upcoming season, there's a particular show worthy of your attention: from November 29 through December 14, check out What We're Up Against, a dramedy that delves into the world of a competitive architectural firm and offers a unique view of sexism in the workplace, including how one could shatter glass ceilings—a topic that is currently very much at the top of mind for many.

The production features a star-studded cast that includes Amrit Kaur of HBO's Sex Lives of College Girls and Krista Morin of Hulu's Handmaid’s Tale. Each show will be followed by a discussion and drinks. 

The theater is also home to a gallery that is currently showing an exhibit by artist Maizianne. It will be there until December 20. 

There's more: Gracemoon Arts Theatre's salon plays host to open mic nights and comedy shows, among other happenings. To snag tickets to any show and look through the schedule of events, check out the theater's website
