The Roundtable with Robert Bannon comes to you straight from the electric opening night red carpet of Bug at Manhattan Theatre Club, where Broadway, film, and TV royalty showed up in force. We caught up with Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Tracy Letts and the incredible MTC team behind this bold new production, plus a jaw-dropping lineup of stars including Michael Shannon, Anna Chlumsky, Andrea Martin, Chris Perfetti, Alison Pill, Jon Gries, Kelley Curran, Morgan Spector, Maria Dizzia, and Vanessa Ray — all celebrating one of the most talked-about theatrical events of the season.

Between flashbulbs, hugs, and opening-night adrenaline, this special Roundtable captures what makes live theatre magic: the community, the nerves, the joy, and the stories you only hear when everyone’s still buzzing from curtain up. From Broadway legends to Hollywood favorites, this was one of those nights where every step down the carpet brought another “wait… is that—?!” moment, and you’ll feel all of it in this fast-moving, star-packed conversation.
