A new play, Prospect High: Brooklyn, written by Jersey Boys star Daniel Robert Sullivan and a team of NYC teenagers has been seen in high-schools across the country and is finally making its New York debut.

The play follows four intelligent and highly charged students and one seriously apathetic teacher. The plot will address everything from apathy, revenge, friendship, trans-identity, racism, self harm and the power of both good and bad advice from teachers, all set in one extremely large Brooklyn high-school.




“We began working on Prospect High: Brooklyn last February in our 9th grade Essentials of Acting class,” commented McIntosh in a press statement. “Our entire Freshman class had the opportunity to dig in and work on every scene in the play, and then selected two scenes to develop for in-class performances. In working on this material, I was immediately struck by how well the writers had captured the rhythms and idioms of today’s youth. I have never found a text that I could give to a class and have literally every student immediately be able to give such a fully committed cold reading. The students could tell that this was the rare piece of writing that was actively working to explore their issues and express them in a voice they recognized as their own.”

Prospect High: Brooklyn was developed in partnership with Education at Roundabout and the Fox Foundation Resident Actor Fellowships. The play is currently completing its traveling world premiere, having had 23 high school presentations across the country. Repertory High School will present the play on September 9 at 7 PM. The show will then be staged September 10 at 2 PM and 7 PM in Roundabout’s Black Box Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre, located at 111 West 46th Street, New York.

Tickets are expected to be available at the door on a first-come, first-served basis.
