You are ugly. It’s a fact. I can’t believe you didn’t know.

Lette designs widgets by day and goes home to a loving wife at night. Everything's completely normal, until one day he learns the truth.  In this whip-smart social satire from one of Germany's most exciting contemporary playwrights, von Mayenburg takes a distinctive perspective on modern commerce. Directed by Soho Rep’s previous Artistic Director Daniel Aukin, THE UGLY ONE expores questions of beauty and value with daring theatricality.
