Time Stands Still runs February 12–21, 2027
Time Stands Still
By: Donald Margulies
ABOUT THE SHOW
Sarah Goodwin, an acclaimed photojournalist, returns to Brooklyn after being seriously injured while covering conflict overseas. Her longtime partner James, a journalist equally shaped by years reporting from war zones, tries to help her recover as the two attempt to rebuild a sense of normalcy far removed from the violence they documented abroad. But as friends gather around them and difficult conversations emerge, Sarah and James are forced to confront uncomfortable questions about love, ambition, morality, and the personal cost of dedicating their lives to observing human suffering.
Donald Margulies’ Pulitzer Prize-nominated Time Stands Still is an intimate and emotionally layered contemporary drama that balances sharp humor with profound honesty. Exploring journalism, trauma, relationships, and the search for meaning, the play asks what responsibility artists and storytellers have to the world—and whether it is truly possible to return home unchanged after witnessing humanity at its worst. Intelligent, moving, and deeply human, this modern drama offers audiences a powerful theatrical experience that lingers long after the final scene.
