Photo Flash: First Look at John Patrick Shanley's PRODIGAL SON at Manhattan Theatre Club

Prodigal Son, the new play written and directed by Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize winner John Patrick Shanley, is now in previews and will open on Tuesday, February 9 at MTC at New York City Center - Stage I (131 West 55th Street). Check out a first look below!

The cast for Prodigal Son features Annika Boras (Chair, An Oresteia), Timothée Chalamet ("Homeland," Interstellar), Tony Award winner Robert Sean Leonard (The Invention of Love, "House"), Chris McGarry (Defiance, Doubt), and David Potters (New York stage debut).

Prodigal Son is a passionate, explosive portrait of a young man on the verge of salvation or destruction, written and directed by John Patrick Shanley (of Tony, Academy Award, and Pulitzer Prize fame). A 17-year-old boy (Timothée Chalamet) from The Bronx finds himself suddenly in a private school in New Hampshire. He's violent, gifted, alienated, on fire with a ferocious loneliness. Two faculty members (Tony Award winner Robert Sean Leonard and Chris McGarry) wrestle with the dilemma: Is the kid a star or a disaster?

The creative team for Prodigal Son features Santo Loquasto (scenic design), Jennifer Von Mayrhauser (costume design), Natasha Katz (lighting design), Fitz Patton (sound design), Paul Simon (Original Music), and Charlotte Fleck (dialect coach).
