The World Premiere of HIR by Taylor Mac

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Magic Theatre is thrilled to welcome back Obie Award-winning playwright Taylor Mac with the world premiere of Hir. The production is directed by Niegel Smith and will run January 29 – February 23, 2014 at Magic Theatre, Fort Mason Center, Building D, 3rd Floor.

Newly enlightened Paige is determined to forge a deliriously liberated world for her two wayward children: Isaac, recently discharged from the army under dubious circumstances; and Max, tender, jaded, and sculpting a third-sex gender identity for hirself. Hailed as “one of this country’s most heroic and disarmingly funny playwrights” (American Theatre Magazine), Magic welcomes back renowned theatre artist Taylor Mac (The Lily’s Revenge) with this hilarious drama.

Featuring: Tony Award-nominated actress Nancy Opel*, Jax Jackson, Mark Anderson Phillips*, and Ben Euphrat*

*Member of Actors’ Equity Association, the Union of Professional Actors and Stage Managers
