The Popes Of Farragut Street By Melanie Maria Goodreaux Premieres At Theater For The New City

NEW YORK - Rezul -- Melanie Maria Goodreaux's new play THE POPES OF FARRAGUT STREET will premiere at Theater for the New City in New York City. Following the success of RITA IS THE GOAT, ENOUGH VO5 FOR THE UNIVERSE, and THE WHITE BLACKS, Goodreaux returns with her latest work for a limited 12-performance engagement, November 6–23, 2025 (Thurs–Sat at 8 PM, Sun at 3 PM).

THE POPES OF FARRAGUT STREET celebrates the messy, humorous, and redemptive ways people love each other—even when they get it wrong. In Conrad Patsy's "Shade Tree" auto shop, a community of mechanics, dreamers, and spiritual seekers wrestle with belonging and belief as a hurricane looms. Blending the mix-ups and crossed affections of Shakespeare's finest comedies with the soulful storytelling of August Wilson, THE POPES OF FARRAGUT STREET is a lively exploration of regret and romance, family, faith, and identity set against the vibrant backdrop of New Orleans' cultural and spiritual life.
