'McNeal' follows the life of its titular character, a writer who becomes increasingly dependent on artificial intelligence. The thought-provoking plot delves into themes of creativity, free will, and the unintended consequences of relying on technology.

Directed by Bartlett Sher, 'McNeal' boasts a powerful collaboration between director and playwright as well as Robert Downey Jr.'s magnetic presence. All eyes are now on the Lincoln Center Theater's Vivian Beaumont as Broadway enthusiasts eagerly await Downey Jr.'s show-stealing Broadway debut.
