Remembering Michael K. Williams

We are heartbroken to learn of the passing of actor Michael K. Williams on September 6, 2021 at age 54. He performed at La MaMa early in his career, as well as the National Black Theatre Company and the Theater for a New Generation. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

In this podcast episode, Marc Maron revisits a conversation with Michael K. Williams from earlier in 2021 where he says the following about La MaMa:

I was blessed to be introduced to the off-Broadway theatre world of New York City. My first play that I did was at a theatre on the Lower East Side called La MaMa Experimental Theatre under Ellen Stewart.
