The Dark Outside

The ever-busy stage treasure Austin Pendleton plays a one-armed East London tailor with a family in disarray in the world premiere of a drama by the nonagenarian British playwright and poet Bernard Kops. Jack F. Serio directs a cast that also includes Katharine Cullison—who costarred with Pendleton in Kops's Playing Sinatra in 2013, also at Theatre for the New City— as well as Jesse McCormick, Brenna Donahue and Kathleen Simmonds.
