Second Stage Theater celebrated the opening of its world premiere of Will Eno’s The Underlying Chris November 21. The new play, directed by Kenny Leon, looks at the many ways in which people come into their identity, and how sometimes life’s tiniest moments are the ones which most profoundly change our lives.
The Underlying Chris features a cast made up of Hannah Cabell, Michael Countryman, Denise Burse, Nicholas Hutchinson, Lenne Klingaman, Lizbeth Mackay, Nidra Sous La Terre, Howard Overshown, Isabella Russo, Charles Turner, and Luis Vega.
