Frustratingly, Solondz has three upcoming film projects in the air (though admittedly, two are more like film projects he's contributing portions to), with nary an update as to when any of those might land in our theaters or streaming services. But if you're in the tri-state area, you'll soon be able to sate your Solondz jones at The Flea Theater in NYC.
Yes, Todd Solondz is both writing and directing an original play entitled Emma and Max, which will run through the month of October in the Sam Theater (Confused? The Sam Theater is the upstairs theater in the larger Flea Theater building, which houses three theaters in total). With a cast of five as-yet unannounced Equity actors, the official website describes the play as, "a satire of tragic dimensions" that "explores the illusions and delusions, hopes and despair, of the city’s well-off and worn-down." Other credits include artistic director Niegel Smith, costume designer Andre Lauger and casting director Ann Goulder. Tickets are already on sale here.
