Amy and the Orphans Tickets

Roundabout's powerful and poignant new comedy has captured the hearts of theatergoers and critics alike. Jamie Brewer ("American Horror Story"), Tony winner Debra Monk and Obie-winner Mark Blum play adult siblings, one with Down syndrome, figuring out the family they never understood. "There's a powerful beating heart in Lindsey Ferrentino's writing," (The Hollywood Reporter), and director Scott Ellis "strikes the ideal balance between pathos and levity in this astonishing play" (NY1). As TheWrap says, it "achieves something remarkable."
