A special kind of performance, this unique play offers a rotating cast of stars at the helm. *Pre-Existing Condition* originally ran at the Connelly Theater, and Drama Desk Award nominee Greg Keller, Pulitzer Prize finalist Dael Orlandersmith, and Drama Desk Award winner Sarah Steele reprise their supporting roles from that first run.

Playwright Marin Ireland and director Maria Dizzia said in a shared statement, "We are thrilled and honored to be able to bring the play back at Greenwich House this fall and continue the tradition of rotating the actors playing the central role. We have assembled a dazzling group of women to add to the legacy of our first production — Lupita, Phillipa, Susannah, Hari and Edie are each incredibly dynamic powerhouses, bringing new and singular perspectives." 

They added, "Actors sharing the role creates a community inside this production, and we can’t wait for that community to expand to audiences in September." 

## What to watch for
- New York Theatre Guide wrote that the play offers an “unfiltered examination of how violence imprints itself on the body and soul."
- Tony nominee Marin Ireland is best known as an actress, for roles in *The Irishman* and *Reasons to be Pretty*, and here she shows off her fierce writing chops in this new play.
- Director Maria Dizzia is also known for her performances, including in *What We Did Before Our Moth Days, Eurydice*, and *Orange Is the New Black*.
- Ireland and Dizzia also said in a statement, "Our hope is that this play has a chance to do what theater does best: make someone feel less alone, hold them in sacred space with others, and shed light in the places we need it most.”

After the closure of its immersive production of *Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street* in August 2018, the venue reassumed its original name. Since early 2019, Ars Nova has produced shows at the Greenwich House Theater.
