Boston Theatre Scene

The Psych Drama Company

Frankie & Johnny in the Clair de Lune

BCA Plaza Black Box Theatre, 539 Tremont Street

June 18 – June 28 2026
A story of hope and love as two characters, over the course of one night, find their way past the challenges that have blocked them from experiencing connection.
The world needs LOVE — and you will find it under the moonlight when you see The Psych Drama Company’s production of Terrence McNally’s award-winning Frankie & Johnny in the Clair de Lune, directed by Broadway’s Julia Murney (Elphaba in Wicked on Broadway and National Tour and so much more! Please see bio below.) in her Boston directing debut. At all evening performances, sport your best “twinkle-toe” shoes so you can dance the night away in the light of the moon . . . Audience dancing will follow each evening curtain call. On Sunday matinees, bring your insightful connection questions to engage in enlightening post-show discussion.

The Psych Drama Company presents Terrence McNally’s Frankie & Johnny in the Clair de Lune, directed by Broadway’s Julia Murney (Elphaba in Wicked), with post-show audience dancing after all evening performances and talk-back discussions after both matinees.
