Written by Pulitzer Prize winner Stephen Adly Guirgis and directed by two-time Olivier Award winner Rupert Goold, Dog Day Afternoon is inspired by the actual events that captivated audiences in the Oscar-winning motion picture.
Dog Day Afternoon begins performances on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, and officially opens Monday, March 30, 2026 at Broadway’s August Wilson Theatre, for a strictly limited engagement.
Step back into the sweltering summer of 1972, New York City—a time when the Vietnam War looms large, Watergate headlines flood the news, and one man’s desperate act captivates the nation. A Brooklyn bank hold up quickly goes wrong, and with each gut-wrenching twist that unfolds, chaos ensues that ignites the city as they follow the actions of a man on the edge. Dog Day Afternoon is a raw, gritty reminder of what happens when passion and desperation collide.
