Take Me Out 2022 on Broadway Background

First Premiering on Broadway in 2002

First premiering on Broadway in 2002 Take Me Out is the story of a baseball team's rally towards a championship season and their struggles with off-the-field factors along the way.

Broadway plays and musicals about sports often do very poorly on the Great White Way. There are a litany of fallen shows with solid sports themes that have met with great critical reception, but have been box office disasters.

This show attempts to use prejudice against race and sexuality as its main theme and may well do better in the box office as it speaks to topics that are experienced every day in the gay and black communities. To be black and gay has to be a great challenge, but to be playing in a sport that is inherently prejudice is beyond comparison.

Phones are Banned at this Broadway Show Due to Nudity

This show is requiring patrons to seal their phones in Yondr pouches throughout the performance. This Broadway production includes male nudity, and this step (in theory) prevents patrons from photographing the unclothed actors.

This step does introduce a new problem that when a phone does inadvertently ring, the phone owner cannot get to it to switch it off and it will keep ringing and interrupting the show much to the chagrin of the naked actors on stage.
