John Tiffany-Helmed LET THE RIGHT ONE IN to Make American Debut at St. Ann's Warehouse This Winter

St. Ann's Warehouse welcomes back the National Theatre of Scotland, director John Tiffany and associate director Steven Hoggett for the American Premiere of Let the Right One In, which Jack Thorne adapted for the stage from John Ajvide Lindqvist's novel and screenplay, and which garnered tremendous acclaim on London's West End earlier this year.

This American Premiere engagement matches the fantastical and raw production with St. Ann's vast canvas of a space at the perfect time of year. The simultaneously terrifying and enchanted vampire love story -- with its chilling stage pictures, thrilling special effects, eerie wooded snowscape setting, arresting music and movement -- will heat up St. Ann's Warehouse in the dead of New York winter.

The American Premiere of Let the Right One In, January 20 - February 15, 2015, marks the return of the National Theatre of Scotland, Tiffany and Hoggett to St. Ann's Warehouse, where their seminal, award-winning production of Black Watch had its American Premiere and multiple sold-out return engagements, and where Bryony Lavery's Beautiful Burnout, a Frantic Assembly/National Theatre of Scotland co-production directed and choreographed by Hoggett and Scott Graham, also made its American Premiere. After Black Watch, Tiffany and Hoggett went on to create together the Broadway hits The Glass Menagerie and Once (with writer and frequent St. Ann's artist, Enda Walsh), as well as several successful Broadway and opera productions individually.

Performances of Let the Right One In will take place Jan 20-24, 27-31, Feb 3-7 and 10-14 at 8pm; Jan 24 & 31, and Feb 7 & 14 at 3pm; Jan 25 and Feb 1, 8 & 15 at 2pm and 7pm. Casting and press dates will be announced soon. Tickets, $35-75, are available for purchase to St. Ann's Warehouse Members starting Oct 13, 2014, and on sale to the General Public on November 3 at www.stannswarehouse.org or 718.254.8779. Let the Right One In runs 2:15 and is recommended for adults and fearless teens aged 13+.

Let the Right One In is a brutal and tender vampire myth told through the turbulence of a coming-of-age romance. Oskar, a lonely boy from a broken home, is bullied at school and longing for friendship. Eli, the young girl who moves in next door, doesn't attend school and rarely leaves home.When a series of mysterious killings plagues the neighborhood, these two young misfits, sensing in each other a kindred spirit, forge a deep connection. But the shocking truth about one of them tests their young friendship -and love- beyond all imaginable limits.

About St. Ann's Warehouse - For over three decades, St. Ann's has commissioned, produced and presented an eclectic body of innovative theater and concert presentations that meet at the intersection of theater and rock and roll. Since 2001, the organization has helped vitalize the emerging Brooklyn waterfront neighborhood, DUMBO, where St. Ann's Warehouse has become one of New York City's most important and compelling live performance destinations. After twelve years at 38 Water Street, St. Ann's activated a new warehouse at 29 Jay, turning it into a three year interim home while the organization has designed and raised funds to adapt the Tobacco Warehouse in Brooklyn Bridge Park. Construction is underway at 45 Water Street (the Tobacco Warehouse), which will be the permanent address of St. Ann's Warehouse for the next 50 years, starting in Fall 2015. St. Ann's is transforming the historic building-originally constructed in 1860, roofless and in disrepair for decades-into New York City's finest waterfront cultural center.

Through its signature multi-artist concerts and groundbreaking music/theater collaborations, St. Ann's Warehouse has become the artistic home for the American avant-garde, international companies of stature and award-winning emerging artists. Highly acclaimed landmark productions include Lou Reed's and John Cale's Songs for 'Drella; Marianne Faithfull's Seven Deadly Sins; Artistic Director Susan Feldman's Band in Berlin; Charlie Kaufman and the Coen Brothers' Theater of the New Ear; The Royal Court Theater's 4:48 Psychosis; The Globe Theatre of London's Measure for Measure; Druid Company's The Walworth Farce, The New Electric Ballroom and Penelope; Enda Walsh's Misterman, featuring Cillian Murphy; Lou Reed's Berlin; the National Theater of Scotland's acclaimed Black Watch; Kneehigh Theatre's Brief Encounter and The Wild Bride; Yael Farber's Mies Julie; Dmitry Krymov Lab's Opus No. 7; the Donmar Warehouse all-female Julius Caesar; Kate Tempest's Brand New Ancients; and Tricycle Theatre's Red Velvet. St. Ann's has championed such artists as The Wooster Group, Mabou Mines, Jeff Buckley, Cynthia Hopkins, Enda Walsh, Emma Rice, and Daniel Kitson. St. Ann's Warehouse has been awarded the Ross Wetzsteon OBIE Award for the development of new work. The OBIE Award Committee honored St. Ann's for "inviting artists to treat their cavernous DUMBO space as both an inspiring laboratory and a sleek venue where its super-informed audience charges the atmosphere with hip vitality."
