A sculptor preparing to open a new show must balance her creative life with the daily dramas of family and friends.

When their performance artist parents suddenly go missing, two adult siblings must revisit their dysfunctional childhood to solve the mystery.

Tony Award-winning playwright and director Richard Nelson returns to The Public with HUNGRY, the first in a new three-play cycle introducing us to the Gabriels of Rhinebeck, New York. To the rhythm of peeling, chopping and mixing, HUNGRY places us in the center of the Gabriel’s kitchen. The family discusses their lives and disappointments, and the world at large and nearby.

WOMEN OF A CERTAIN AGE takes place in the course of a single night, eight months after we first meet the Gabriels. Patricia, the family matriarch, joins her children and daughters-in-law as they prepare a meal from the past and consider the future of their country, town and home.

WHAT DID YOU EXPECT? brings us back to the kitchen of the Gabriel family, with the country now in the midst of the general election for President. In the course of one evening in the house they grew up in, history (both theirs and our country's), money, politics, family, art and culture are chopped up and mixed together, while a meal is made around the kitchen table.

Based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers and journalist Tom Junod.

A wayward bad-boy (Chris Messina) returns home for a funeral and reveals a secret from his past. Also starring Rich Sommer and Sarah Paulson. Official Selection, 2012 Tribeca Film Festival.
