About Danny and the Deep Blue Sea

Aubrey Plaza and Christopher Abbott star in John Patrick Shanley's breakthrough play "Danny and the Deep Blue Sea," a searing portrayal of the imperceptible space between joy and pain.

The drama returns to New York's West Village for a limited time only with its enduring message about the importance of human connection. Don't miss the chance to see these powerhouse actors in this blistering two-hander. Plaza is Roberta, a divorcée with a teenage son, while Abbott plays Danny, a brooding loner who lives with his mother. Both are haunted by their pasts, and when the two strangers sidle up to a bar in the Bronx, they compare scars over beers. The unlikely pair uncover their deepest, darkest truths, carving out space for empathy — and maybe more.

"Danny and the Deep Blue Sea" is a gripping, early drama from John Patrick Shanley, the celebrated writer of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning "Doubt: A Parable."

Thought-provoking, Great staging, Great acting, Intense, Absorbing

See it if The dark play of2 tormented souls meeting @ a rundown BX bar on a fateful night is superbly perf by both A.Plaza & C.Abbot on adequate sets.

Don’t see it if The 1st part is more riveting than the 2nd part; the script isn't perfect. Yet, this is one of those plays I'd like to see again.

Riveting, Great writing, Great acting

See it if A great poignant story expertly written and performed. Clear characters and inner logic. 80 riveting minutes. Kudos to Plaza and Abbott.

Don’t see it if you don't care for high octane uncomfortable people or deep psychological drama.
