Five-time Emmy winner Wayne Brady (Moulin Rouge, Kinky Boots) will lead an industry presentation of Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner Alfred Uhry's newly revised play Without Walls October 24 in Manhattan. 

Matthew Johnson Harris will direct the three-person drama. Set in a progressive Upper West Side private school in 1976, Without Walls explores the dynamic between a beloved theatre teacher and his two favorite students. 

Brady will be joined by The Summer I Turned Pretty star David Iacono and John Proctor is the Villain star Amelia Yoo. 

Uhry first penned the play in the early 2000s, but set it aside for the next two decades until Johnson Harris recently encouraged him to revisit it. Uhry has rewritten more than two-thirds of the script, refreshing it with "resonance for today's world."
