About the event
Out East, a new musical comedy with book/lyrics by Ava Roberts and music by Chelsea Zak is about the most obnoxious people you're still dying to get to know.
Harper is a seventeen-year-old that somehow believes that spending her time summering in the Hamptons … “Out East,” if you will … is the end of the world. Her mom is marrying into an old money family (don’t ask how they got rich, ‘cuz we don’t know), complete with two new step siblings and an unfamiliar life.
Complete with a love triangle and innumerable jokes about your least favorite men in finance, Out East is theater’s is a fresh, Gen Z-centered satire of New York’s elite.
