SOHO REP PLAY IS A PULITZER FINALIST
Shayok Misha Chowdhury’s “Public Obscenities,” which had its world premiere at Soho Rep, has been named one of three finalists for the 2024 Pulitzer Prize in Drama. The play has since transferred to Woolly Mammoth and Theatre for a New Audience. The Pulitzer Prize committee described as “a densely written, deeply-felt drama that examines identity, home, queerness, and language through the lens of a Bengali American reuniting with his family in India.”

AND…SOHO REP ‘THE FIRES’ EXTENDED
Soho Rep’s “The Fires” is a NY Times Critic’s Pick and is now extended through June 20. Brittani Samuel wrote: “Rarely does a show live up so honestly to its title – wrecking and illuminating in equal measure…memorable performances…comedic moments prove that queer Black life (and, thus queer Black love) can be tragic and hilarious.” Tickets range from $35 to $55. Tuesday to Sunday at 7:30; Saturday matinee at 3p.
