Check Out New Photos of Broadway’s Take Me Out, Starring Jesse Williams, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Patrick J. Adams

The Second Stage production is the first Broadway revival of Richard Greenberg’s 2003 Tony-winning play, about a major league baseball star who comes out of the closet.

Second Stage’s Broadway revival of Richard Greenberg’s Take Me Out began previews at the Hayes Theater March 10 prior to an official opening April 4. Directed by Scott Ellis, the production is currently scheduled to continue through May 29.

Jesse Williams stars as baseball star Darren Lemming, center fielder for the Empires, who comes out of the closet, revealing a tradition of long-held unspoken prejudices off the field. As the Empires struggle to rally toward a championship season, the players and their fans begin to question the old ways, their loyalties, and the price of victory.

Co-starring with Williams are Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Patrick J. Adams, Julian Cihi, Hiram Delgado, Brandon J. Dirden, Carl Lundstedt, Ken Marks, Michael Oberholtzer, Eduardo Ramos, and Tyler Lansing Weaks. The company is rounded out by understudies Ryan Broussard, Michael Castillejos, Lance Takeshi, Stephen Wattrus, and Tim Wright.

Take Me Out premiered on Broadway in 2003, winning the Best Play Tony Award. Second Stage’s production is the play’s first Broadway revival. Ellis and Williams will reportedly continue their work with the piece as it is adapted as a TV mini-series expected to premiere later this year.

Second Stage’s revival features scenic design by David Rockwell, costume design by Linda Cho, lighting design by Kenneth Posner, sound design by Bray Poor, and casting by Jim Carnahan. Fight direction is by Sordelet Inc., with Barclay Stiff serving as production stage manager and Kelly Levy as stage manager.

The production is supported by grants from the Berlanti Family Foundation, the Blanche & Irving Laurie Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts.
