Seared

Written and Directed by Theresa Rebeck

Dorset Theatre Festival, Jul 11-27, 2019

“Rebeck cooks up a storm in her raucously funny new play” — THE WRAP
“Deliciously cooked. Seared is a fast-paced workplace comedy that even non-foodies will find hilarious. Rebeck has a talent for fast and funny, profane dialogue.” — THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
“To be blunt: Drop everything and see the MCC Theater production Seared. It is one of the best new plays in New York, and a welcome reminder in a dizzyingly packed autumn theater season what fluent, sharp-as-hell writing and alive, intelligent direction can achieve.” — THE DAILY BEAST

Chef Harry has poured his heart into his intimate Brooklyn restaurant, and it is finally paying off. A rave review has New Yorkers flocking through his doors and selling out every table. But is this the success he has been dreaming of?
