MTC Extends HEISENBERG, Starring Mary Louise Parker & Denis Arndt

Manhattan Theatre Club has announced a two-week extension for the critically acclaimed world premiere of Heisenberg, the new play by Tony Award and two-time Olivier Award winner Simon Stephens (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Punk Rock), directed by Drama Desk Award winner Mark Brokaw (The Lyons, How I Learned to Drive), starring Denis Arndt (The Night Alive at Geffen Playhouse, "The Practice") and Tony and Emmy Award winner Mary-Louise Parker (Proof, "Weeds").

The limited engagement will play its final performance at The Studio at Stage II - Harold and Mimi Steinberg New Play Series at New York City Center - Stage II (131 West 55th Street) on Saturday evening, July 11.

Tickets for the extension are on sale now and are priced at $100. Special $30 tickets are offered as part of MTC's 30 Under 30 program, which makes tickets available to all MTC shows for theatergoers age 30 and under for $30, limit two per order.

Amidst the bustle of a crowded London train station, Georgie (Mary-Louise Parker) spots Alex (Denis Arndt), a much older man, and plants a kiss on his neck. This electric encounter thrusts these two strangers into a fascinating and life-changing game. Directed by Drama Desk Award winner Mark Brokaw (The Lyons, How I Learned to Drive), Heisenberg brings to blazing, theatrical life the uncertain and often comical sparring match that is human connection.

Heisenberg was commissioned by Manhattan Theatre Club.

The creative team for Heisenberg includes Mark Wendland (scenic design), Michael Krass (costume design), Donald Holder (lighting design), David Van Tieghem (sound design), and Stephen Gabis (dialect consultant).
