The Daughter-in-Law (2022)

THE DAUGHTER-IN-LAW is D.H. Lawrence’s portrayal of a marriage in crisis. The play was written in 1913, when Lawrence was still a schoolteacher in Croydon but went unproduced until 1967. Mint first produced Lawrence’s play in 2003 and it remains one of our most popular and successful productions. The New York Times declared when naming it among the Best Productions of the Year. 

David Herbert Lawrence (Playwright 1885-1930) was born in 1885 in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire. He is best known as the author of Sons and Lovers, The Rainbow, Women in Love and the notorious Lady Chatterley’s Lover, which was considered to be obscene and widely banned; remarkably, the novel was not legally available in England until 1960. Many of Lawrence’s works, including The Daughter-in-Law, are set in the Eastwood of his childhood, where he grew up the third son of a coal miner.

So Help Me God!

In 2009, the Mint headed downtown to the Lucille Lortel Theater for a production of the wickedly witty backstage comedy, SO HELP ME GOD! by Maurine Dallas Watkins. The production starred two-time Emmy Award-winner Kristen Johnston as the temperamental star who tramples everyone who stands in her way.

Maurine Dallas Watkins (1896-1969) wrote the 1926 play CHICAGO, upon which the musical is based.  Winner of six Tonys and a Best Picture Oscar for 2002 film, the musical CHICAGO would seem a “sure thing” from the start. But its beginnings were very much in doubt. Had Watkins got her way, CHICAGO the musical would not exist at all.

The Power of Darkness

In 2007, Mint Theater Company was awarded $100,000 from The Tony Randall Theatrical Fund to support a production of Leo Tolstoy’s dramatic landmark, THE POWER OF DARKNESS. Set in a peasant village in Russia, “Tolstoy’s ruthlessly detailed, coal-black drama”1 is a heartrending and cautionary tale about the consequences of pursuing personal gain while disregarding morality and the dictates of one’s own conscience.

Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) is one of the most important novelists in Western literature. The breadth of his vision and the range of his accomplishments are immense.

John Ferguson

“A thoroughly engrossing, fully realized drama brought to life by an ensemble of actors who never miss a beat,”1 wrote the New York Times of St. John Ervine’s JOHN FERGUSON in its first appearance on the New York stage since 1919.

John St. Greer Ervine was born in 1883 in Ballymacarrett, a suburb of Belfast.  He developed an early interest in theatre despite the objections of his family.
