Loy A. Webb’s debut play The Light, is making its NYC debut as the debut play in MCC Theater’s new home on West 52nd Street. That’s a lot of firsts for one production, but the canny folks at MCC who produce the annual Miscast fundraiser that has both the theater community and the public clamoring for a seat, knew what they were doing by picking The Light for this prestigious spot.
MCC Theater kicks off its inaugural season at its new home in Hell's Kitchen with the New York premiere of The Light, written by Loy A. Webb and directed by Logan Vaughn.
Performances are staged at The Susan and Ronald Frankel Theater.

6 images About The Light:
Not every marriage proposal goes as planned. The Light introduces us to Rashad and Genesis on what should be one of the happiest days of their lives, but their joy quickly unravels when ground-shifting accusations from the past resurface in this gripping two character drama. Can their relationship survive the growing divide between them over who – and what – to believe? The Light is a reckoning that unfolds in real-time and peels away the layers of truth, doubt, pain, and ultimately the power of love.
