A tender, raw, and surprisingly funny portrait of two lonely souls reaching for connection. After a late shift at a New York diner, short-order cook Johnny persuades waitress Frankie to let him stay a little longer. What begins as a one-night stand turns into an intimate journey of vulnerability, trust, and the hope that love might still be possible. With sparkling dialogue and aching honesty, McNally’s romantic two-hander reminds us that sometimes, the quietest stories are the most profound.

CONTENT WARNING: Frankie & Johnny offers a frank and often humorous portrayal of two middle-aged adults in the late night hours of their first date. PLEASE NOTE: The play contains scenes of sexual intimacy and brief nudity.
