DATE OF A LIFETIME Plays at NYMF, Closes 10/16

The New York Musical Theatre Festival, in association with Ulmer Theatricals, has announced the world premiere production of Carl Kissin and Robert Baumgartner, Jr.'s DATE OF A LIFETIME, directed by Jeremy Dobrish and choreographed by Wendy Seyb. DATE OF A LIFETIME will play its final performance at McGinn/Cazale Theatre (2162 Broadway, 4th Floor, between 76-77 Street.) on Sunday, October 16.

One date. Eight minutes. Two lifetimes.

During their limited time together on a speed date, Marvin hypothesizes what his entire life with Katie might be like - from present day through death. Then it's her turn. Will this awkward
first encounter be another "looking for love" horror story replete with requisite nametags and whistles - or might it be the date of a lifetime?

The production stars Farah Alvin (Broadway: Nine, The Look of Love, Saturday Night Fever, Grease! and A Christmas Carol. Off-Broadway: The Marvelous Wonderettes (Drama Desk Nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress), I Love You Because, Cam Jansen, If You Give A Mouse A Cookie..., and Kuni-Leml) as Katie, and Jamie LaVerdiere (Broadway debut in The Producers as Matthew Broderick's understudy. Broadway and Touring: Pirate Queen, Urinetown (First National), and A Chorus Line (Europe). Off-Bway includes I Love You, You're Perfect..., Cam Jansen, We the People, and This Side of Paradise) as Marvin.
