It’s Christmas Eve, and Ed has gathered his three adult sons to celebrate with matching pajamas, trash-talking, and Chinese takeout. But when a question they can’t answer interrupts their holiday cheer, they are forced to confront their own identities. Obie Award-winning playwright Young Jean Lee takes a hilariously ruthless look at the classic American father-son drama. This is one white Christmas like you’ve never seen before.
 
Armie Hammer (Call Me by Your Name), Josh Charles (The Good Wife) and Paul Schneider (Parks and Recreation) make their Broadway debuts in Straight White Men, which The New York Times calls a “fascinating and inquisitive new play” directed by Anna D. Shapiro.

Straight White Men is suitable for ages 13 and up, and no one under age 4 is allowed in the theatre. 

Please note: There will be loud music, moving lights, and haze used during the pre-show.

Second Stage recently purchased and (beautifully) renovated the Helen Hayes theatre, the smallest theatre on Broadway (less than 600 seats). As such, there's virtually not a bad seat in the house. There's also a new bar on the top floor,.
