The View UpStairs directed by Scott Ebersold, Off-Broadway at the Lynn Redgrave Theater
New York theatre director Scott Ebersold

I make theatre that puts the audience inside the story. Every production is built in close collaboration with writers, designers, and performers who care deeply about craft. My Off-Broadway production of The View UpStairs earned Drama Desk, Lortel, and Audelco nominations. I've worked at Classic Stage Company, HERE Arts Center, Portland Center Stage, and Goodspeed, and I work in close collaboration with writers at every stage — from the earliest draft to opening night.

Every production begins with a question: what does it feel like to walk into this room?

What the critics said

Ebersold’s lavish staging transforms the entire theater into a comfy-seedy piano lounge.
