Playwrights Horizons has unveiled its spring 2026 season, which includes works by John J. Caswell, Jr., Shayok Misha Chowdhury, Milo Cramer, and Jacob Perkins.

Following the previously announced runs of Jen Tullock and Frank Winters' Nothing Can Take You From the Hand of God and Nazareth Hassan's Practice will be Jacob Perkins' The Dinosaurs, directed by Les Waters and performing in the company's Judith O. Rubin Theater in February and March 2026. The play tracks a group of women who meet weekly to share stories of recovery, somehow both spanning millennia and no time at all. The production will be part of Playwrights' "Unplugged" program, which deemphasizes physical productions to facilitate increased focus on texts.

Next up will be a new, satirical musical by Milo Cramer, No Singing in the Navy. The work lampoons classic, American musicals and their messages about the culture that made them, telling an On the Town-esque story of three sailors with 24 hours of leave before being shipped off to war and certain death. The production will feature a cast of three and an orchestra of one piano. Aysan Celik is directing, with performances running in the Peter Jay Sharp Theater in March and April 2026.

Shayok Misha Chowdhury will direct and star in his new work Rheology, sharing the stage with his physicist mother, Bulbul Chakraborty. The work sees the playwright and his mother challenging each other to a high-stakes experiment. The work has previously been presented via The Bushwick Starr, HERE Arts Center, and Ma-Yi Theater Company. The Playwrights run is part of the Redux program, which gives increased audience reach to works that had limited runs with other companies.

Finally, Dustin Wills will direct Caswell Jr.'s Jerome, about an aging gay couple living in a secluded ghost town in Arizona whose life is upended by the arrival of a stranger at the height of the the AIDS epidemic. Performances will run in May and June 2026 in the company's Rubin Theater.
