New York, NY (April 29, 2025) – Good Night, and Good Luck, the critically-acclaimed new play by George Clooney and Grant Heslov is proud to announce a partnership with the New York City Department of Education to provide 2,000 tickets to New York City Public School students – including those studying journalism – subsidized by the production and TodayTix. Directed by David Cromer, Good Night, and Good Luck has broken the house record at the historic Winter Garden Theatre (1634 Broadway) three times over for 8 performances.

Peter Avery, the NYC Department of Education Director of Theater, said in a statement, “Thank you to George Clooney, the producers of Good Night, and Good Luck, and TodayTix for their inspired generosity and recognizing that all the world is truly a stage for our NYC public school students to explore educational and life skills of literacy, artistic interpretation and point of view. We look forward to students from across the city creatively learning about the intersection of theater, journalism and politics…on Broadway!”

The Good Night, and Good Luck student matinees are in line with Mr. Clooney and Mr. Heslov’s continued support of education through art through the Roybal Film and Television Production Magnet model. Founded in 2022 by Clooney, Heslov, and Creative Artists Agency’s Bryan Lourd, Roybal was designed to create pathways to high-quality jobs in film and television through hands-on training and direct career access for students. Two of the many schools receiving tickets are the Motion Picture Technical High School and the Robert Halmi Sr. Academy of Film and Television, which are part of a national coalition of schools based on the Roybal model.

Tickets to Good Night, and Good Luck are on sale at www.telecharge.com or by calling 212-239-6200.

The creative team for Good Night, and Good Luck includes Tony Award winner Scott Pask (scenic design), Heather Gilbert (lighting design), David Bengali (video/projections design), Daniel Kluger (sound design), Brenda Abbandandolo (costume design), Leah J. Loukas (hair & wig design), Gigi Buffington (voice & dialect), Daniel Kluger and Bryan Carter (music supervision), and David Caparelliotis (Casting Director).

In Good Night, and Good Luck, we tune in to the golden age of broadcast journalism and Edward R. Murrow’s legendary, history-altering, on-air showdown with Senator Joseph McCarthy. As McCarthyism casts a shadow over America, Murrow and his news team choose to confront the growing tide of paranoia and propaganda, even if it means turning the federal government and a worried nation against them. The play chronicles a time in American history when truth and journalistic integrity stood up to fearmongering and disinformation—and won.

Good Night, and Good Luck is produced by Seaview, Sue Wagner, John Johnson, Jean Doumanian and Robert Fox.
