Yankee Tavern
Season 29: “Lost and Sound”
Just when you thought you heard every crazy 9/11 conspiracy theory, a stranger walks into the Yankee Tavern. There, inside the walls of this crumbling New York bar, a young couple finds themselves caught up in what might be the biggest conspiracy of all. Steven Dietz’s acclaimed dramatic thriller is a fierce, funny, and ultimately mind-bending work that grips you until the final word. [Coming soon] To explore more about Yankee Tavern, read our playguide.
