    FISH

    Join bwaySHO as she catches up with the cast and creative team of FISH at Women's Project Theater. WHO: Fish stars Alyssa May Gold (Our Dear Dead Drug Lord, How I Learned to Drive, Arcadia) as Libby, Sara Haider (Garside’s Career, Public Theater’s Peachy) as Isha, Kario Marcel (Public Theater’s Troilus and Cressida, Commonwealth Shakespeare Company’s Romeo and Juliet) as Jon, Roxanna Hope Radja (Torch Song, Frost/Nixon) as Ceyda, Yasmin Lara Ranz-Lind (Smile) as Karya, is written by Melis Aker (Murmurs, Hound Dog) and directed by Tatiana Pandiani (Torera, Someone Spectacular). WHAT: 2016, London. Seventeen-year-old Karya is navigating her brother’s unresolved disappearance. When her mother’s outrageous theory about his whereabouts starts to gain traction, Karya decides to put it to the test. With her best friend, she devises a twisted online experiment, setting a hook in the darkest corners of the internet. But what begins as a search for answers quickly spirals into something more sinister than she ever expected. By turns sharp, tensely funny, and tender, Fish is a darkly comedic coming-of-age story about grief, girlhood and games that go too far. WHEN: Fish is running at WP Theater (2162 Broadway, at 76th Street) from September 26 through October 25 of 2026. Its official opening night will be on October 11, 2026 Beyond The SHO Credits: Edited by Jenna James Theme song by Ethan Crystal & Garrett Poladian Vocals by SLee SEE YOU AT THE SHO!
