The play follows a new father struggling to connect to his baby. Oscar nominee Jesse Eisenberg will debut his new solo play, The Ziegfeld Files, on Monday nights in October, November, and December at Studio Seaview. The Ziegfeld Files is built from therapy recordings of a new father struggling to connect to his baby. He talks about copying machines, early man, breastfeeding classes, failed jokes, sour oranges, and Haitian revolutionary Toussaint Louverture. It runs October 6, 20, 27; November 3, 17, 24; and December 1, during the ongoing run of Jordan Tannahill’s Prince Faggot.
