The hit off-Broadway musical Bingo has begun a limited three-show-per-week winter playing schedule at Off-Broadways St. Lukes Theatre (308 W. 46th St.). The new regular performance schedule includes Saturday matinees at 2 p.m., Saturday evenings at 8 p.m. and Sunday matinees at 3 p.m.

Currently enjoying an open-ended run at Off-Broadway's St. Luke's Theatre (308 West 46th Street), Bingo is directed by Thomas Caruso, with book by Michael Heitzman and Ilene Reid, and lyrics and music by Heitzman, Reid and David Holcenberg.

 

Bingo features a cast that also includes Klea Blackhurst as Bernice/Marilyn, Chevi Colton as Minnie, Janet Metz as Patsy and Jessica Snow-Wilson as Alison.

 

In this interactive musical comedy, "the audience gets to join in the Bingo games at Hamerin County's St. Luke's Church basement, where they will meet – among others – Vern, Honey and Patsy, three pals that have driven through a terrible thunderstorm in the name of their weekly obsession. In between the number calling, strange rituals and fierce competitions, love blossoms and estranged friends reunite, sending everyone home a winner," according to press notes.

 

With choreography by Lisa Stevens, Bingo features scenic design by Eric Renschler, costume design by Carol Brys, lighting design by John Viesta and sound design by Lewis Mead. The show features musical supervision and orchestrations by Steven Bishop.

 

Tickets are $65 and are available by calling Telecharge.com at (212) 239-6200, or in-person at the St. Luke's Theatre Box Office (opens at noon daily, except Thursdays). For more information, please visit www.bingothemusical.com.
