More information about SHIT. MEET. FAN.
Robert O’Hara is a Lambda Literary Award nominee for Bootycandy, an Obie Award winner for In the Continuum, and a Tony Award nominee for directing Slave Play on Broadway. An acclaimed writer and director, Robert O’Hara is well-known to New York audiences thanks to his satirical writing on race relations in America and bawdy and spiky wit.
That humor is in full force in his newest play, coming off Broadway to MCC this fall for a limited run only. A world premiere, Shit. Meet. Fan. follows a friend group over a boozy night and throughout a volatile game: every text, every email, and every call must be shared aloud.
A night for innocent fun and games is particularly pitched as the friends have gathered on the eclipse: souls will be bared and skeletons will come out of the closet as evening rolls in. But it’s all in the spirit of a good time with friends, right? Let the games begin.
What to watch for
- Robert O’Hara returns to MCC after directing there before, for BLKS by Aziza Barnes, which was a New York Times Critics Pick.
- MCC is known for its presentation of adventurous new plays and musicals. Located in Manhattan, the off-Broadway theatre is a popular incubator for new works and has featured celebs on stage, including Lucas Hedges in Yen and Greta Gerwig in The Village Bike.
- O’Hara began his career studying under famed director George C. Wolfe, who also has a big production this year: Gypsy starring Audra McDonald.
- Critics enjoy O’Hara’s ability to blend genres and keep audiences on their toes. In its review of Bootycandy, The New York Times wrote that O’Hara’s writing is “as raw in its language and raucous in spirit as it is smart and provocative.”
