Playwright Bess Wohl Making Her Broadway Debut with “Grand Horizons”

Wohl: IMDb

Bess Wohl is headed to the Great White Way. The “Small Mouth Sounds” playwright’s next production, “Grand Horizons,” will bow on Broadway at the Hayes Theater in December, The New York Times reports. It will mark Wohl’s Broadway debut.

Before Second Stage Theater presents “Grand Horizons” at the Hayes, the play, which centers on the disintegration of a marriage, will have its world premiere at the Williamstown Theater Festival this summer.

Mary Steenburgen and Jesse Tyler Ferguson will take the stage during “Grand Horizons'” Williamstown run, but no word on the Broadway cast yet.

“Continuity,” Wohl’s latest play, will open May 7 at Manhattan Theatre Club’s Stage II. The comedy tells six stories exploring the environment, humanity, and how they co-exist — or don’t. “Make Believe,” “Pretty Filthy,” and “American Hero” are among Wohl’s other stage works. She won the Sam Norkin special Drama Desk Award in 2015, has been featured on the Black List, and wrote the Gugu Mbatha-Raw-starring romantic drama “Irreplaceable You.”
