New York, NY — On Sunday, December 4, 2022, theater podcast Playing on Air invites you to join acclaimed actors Debra Messing (“Will & Grace”) and John Turturro (“Severance,” “The Night Of”) in a live afternoon performance at Playing on Air’s 10th Anniversary Benefit Celebration at 54 Below

Messing and Turturro star in the short comedy Bonnet, a new play by Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, screenwriter, and director John Patrick Shanley (Moonstruck, Doubt: A Parable), who will also direct.
