Being disabled always includes an element of chance.
Anne has a disease you’ve probably never heard of and it doesn’t have a cure. Her doctor says it shouldn’t define her, but she’s going to define it for you.
Watch Me Walk is a hilarious, biting, and compassionate new play about disability, pity, injustice, and family mythologies that will stay with you long after the curtain–or Anne–falls.
After a critically acclaimed run, the Soho Rep production of Watch Me Walk is playing at Yale Rep November 14–December 5, 2026. Info HERE. Individual tickets onsale soon.

Under the Radar Festival
For over two decades, the Under the Radar Festival has brought bold, risk-taking work to New York City, celebrating groundbreaking theater and performance from around the world and just down the street. Produced in collaboration with dozens of venues at a selection of historic and emerging theaters across New York City, the festival showcases innovative multidisciplinary artists whose work speaks powerfully to the present moment. Under the Radar’s influence sets a cultural standard that resonates through the artistic landscape far further and beyond our January schedule. In coordination with Festival founder and Director Mark Russell, Producers Thomas O. Kriegsmann and Sami Pyne of ArKtype, and with the addition of this year’s highly-esteemed Co-Creative Directors Meropi Peponides and Kaneza Schaal, UTR is positioned to continue to capitalize on the Festival’s rich history and expand on a tradition of trailblazing new direction.
Supporters
Watch Me Walk is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
Support for the development of Watch Me Walk was provided by Northwestern University’s School of Communication and the Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts.
