All Nigher runs approximately 90 minutes with no intermission. If you require any accommodations, our staff will be happy to assist.
Please do not bring outside food or drinks into the theatre. One of our crew members has a severe, airborne nut allergy, so we need to keep the space entirely nut-free to keep them safe. Thanks for understanding!

I graduated from a tiny liberal arts college tucked away in rural Ohio. Like the fictional campus in All Nighter, fewer than 3,000 students lived in what often felt like its own universe. Every friendship, relationship, and hookup felt heightened because you couldn't escape the people around you. You'd see them in class, at the dining hall, in the library. The friends you made freshman year often remained your friends until graduation. Falling out wasn't really an option.
All Nighter lives in that moment when identity is more intertwined with the group than the individual, and there is real danger in individualism. These young women contort themselves to preserve their friendship, shutting off parts of themselves and distorting the truth in order to stay united.
In a 2014 interview, playwright Natalie Margolin described her college experience, saying, "I can't imagine a place richer in stories than a campus of 1,600 hormonal students isolated atop a hill.” More than a decade later, she was still drawn to write this play. I understand why.
These characters inhabit a world where Obama is president and the #MeToo movement has not yet reshaped our cultural vocabulary. Consequences feel distant, and truth is surprisingly slippery. In 2026, it's impossible not to bring our current relationship to truth into the room. We live in a moment when facts feel deeply contested, and we see the damage that comes from manipulating reality, especially in politics.
All Nighter doesn't ask us to excuse these characters or condemn them. It asks us to sit with the messy consequences of their choices and remember that how we treat one another, and the truths we choose to tell, matter.
