Significant Other - 2017 Broadway History , Info & More

Booth Theatre (Broadway)
222 West 45th St. New York, NY

Meet Jordan Berman. He's single. And he has a date with a co-worker to see a documentary about the Franco-Prussian war. At least, he thinks it's a date. Significant Other follows Jordan and his three closest friends as they navigate love, friendship and New York in the twenty-something years.



The Broadway debut of author Joshua Harmon will be complemented by the Broadway debut of rising young director Trip Cullman, who guided the play to its successful off-Broadway engagement.

Significant Other was a NY Times Critic's Pick when it premiered last summer at Roundabout Theatre Company. Charles Isherwood, writing in the New York Times, called it "an entirely delightful new play, as richly funny as it is ultimately heart-stirring."



Significant Other began at Roundabout Theatre Company following the professional debut and world premiere of Joshua Harmon's play Bad Jews at Roundabout Underground's Black Box in fall 2012.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Significant Other

‘Significant Other’ Broadway Review: ‘Bridesmaids’ Meets ‘The 40-Year-Old Virgin,’ Only Gay
8 / 10

'Significant Other' begins as a gay '40-Year-Old Virgin' and ends up a gay 'Bridesmaids.' That's not necessarily a negative thing to say about Joshua Harmon's new comedy, which opened Thursday at Broadway's Booth Theatre. The show never feels derivative, even though you might get the impression you've seen this distraught hero before through a different prism in an alternate universe.

Theater Review: Significant Other Is Still a Too-Loud, Too-Long Wedding Reception
6 / 10

If only Significant Other, which opened tonight on Broadway, were as dramatic. But although Joshua Harmon's sour comedy has many fine supporting qualities - wit, a neat structure, lacerating dialogue, and a clutch of terrific performances from a cast led by Gideon Glick - they don't have very much to support.
