Mint Theater's Vintage Off Broadway Comedy

The Leonard Lopate Show | Oct 1, 2015

Mint Theater artistic director Jonathan Bank discusses the new production of Harold Chapin's "The New Morality," along with star Brenda Meaney. The play takes us aboard a houseboat on a fashionable reach of the Thames in 1911, the hottest summer on record. Betty Jones (Meany) has been simmering for weeks, watching her husband make a fool of himself by lavishing attention on their neighbor, Muriel Wister. 

Mint Theater has announced that "The New Morality" will now run through October 25th. It will be the last chance to see The Mint on 43rd Street, as after two decades the organization is moving.
