Next Fall by Geoffrey Nauffts

Next Fall portrays the ups and downs of Adam and Lukes long term relationship and how they make it work despite their differences. Luke is devoutly religious, while Adam is an atheist. However, following an unexpected accident which changes everything, Adam must turn to Lukes family and friends for supportand answers. This timely and compelling new American play goes beyond a typical love story and paints a beautiful and funny portrait of modern romance, questioning commitment, faith and unconditional love. Next Fall opened in New York in 2009 to huge critical acclaim before transferring to the Helen Hayes Theatre on Broadway in 2010, where it was produced by Sir Elton John and David Furnish. Geoffrey Nauffts won the John Gassner Award at the Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best New American Play for Next Fall. The play was also nominated for Outstanding Play at the Drama Desk Awards (2010), Outstanding New Broadway Play at the Outer Critics Circle Awards (2010) and Best Play at the Tony Awards (2010). This artful, thoughtful and very moving story proceeds with the stinging breeziness of a cosmopolitan comedy but is an intellectual stealth bomb Ben Brantley, The New York Times
