Slanted Floors opened on Monday, November 2, in its new Manhattan home inside the Astor Place Theatre, and the first photographs of the transfer show how the Greenpoint apartment play has been rebuilt for the room.
Billy McEntee’s piece began in a real apartment in Greenpoint, where two runs sold out and it picked up a 2026 Drama Desk nomination for Unique Theatrical Experience. For this engagement, Ryan Dobrin’s staging has been reworked for a small room in the Astor Place building, dressed as the apartment and still seating only about 30 people a performance. We covered the move when the return engagement was announced, and again when the run was extended to November 29.
The production photos are by HanJie Chow. They were shared on Instagram in a joint post from Playbill and Kyle Beltran, who plays Teddy opposite Adam Chanler-Berat’s Kaplan, the two roommates whose rent-controlled downtown apartment the audience visits for the evening. The gallery is below.
