The stage career of Sadoski, an award-winning actor, began as an understudy for Mark Ruffalo, Mark Rosenthal and Mark Rosenthal in an Off-Broadway production of Kenneth Lonergan's play This is Our Youth at Second Stage Theatre. It was the first of many productions for the theatre company based in New York. He has been in numerous Off-broadway and Broadway productions. He also performed in several productions in regional theaters. He portrayed Greg in Neil LaBute's Play Reasons to Be Pretty at the MCC Theatre with his Newsroom co-star Alison Pill. It was a highly-acclaimed Off-Broadway show which sold to the max. In April of 2009, it was moved to Broadway where it was awarded three Tony Award nominations: Best Actor: Sadoski; Best Actress: Marin Ireland; Best Play and three Drama Desk Award nominations: Best Actor, Best Director, Terry Kinney and Best Actor. 6 Neil LaBute credits Sadoski for being the catalyst for the widely praised shift in tone of the reasons to be beautiful from his earlier plays saying: "His own thoughtfulness and positive attitude helped me not go back to any of the plays I've written prior to that. My plays usually end darkly. He was able to help me see other shades in the palette. I believed that to be an actual thing. He played the role of Trip Wyeth, Jon Robin Baitz's Other Desert Cities. For this role, he received an Obie Award as well as the Lucille Lortel Award. The play (which was also, after an already sold-out Off-Broadway production, was transferred to Broadway in November of 2011) was named the Best New Off-Broadway Play by the Outer Critics Circle in 2011. Sadoski, Ben Stiller, Edie Failco Jennifer Jason Leigh, Alison Pill and Alison Pill were also seen on Broadway in John Guare's House of Blue Leaves.
