4000 MILES Opens at Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater Tomorrow

Performances being tomorrow, Thursday, March 15, for the Lincoln Center Theater production of 4000 MILES, a new play by Amy Herzog, directed by Daniel Aukin in the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater (150 West 65 Street). 4000 Miles premiered last summer as a production of LCT3, Lincoln Center Theater's programming initiative devoted to producing the work of new artists and developing new audiences. 4000 Miles features its original LCT3 cast – Gabriel Ebert, Greta Lee, Mary Louise Wilson and Zoë Winters. Opening night is Monday, April 2 at 6:45pm.

After losing his best friend while they were on a cross-country bike trip, 21 year-old Leo (Gabriel Ebert) seeks solace with his feisty 91 year-old grandmother (Mary Louise Wilson) in her West Village apartment. 4000 Miles examines how these two outsiders find their way in today's world. The production has sets by Lauren Helpern, costumes by Kaye Voyce, lighting by Japhy Weideman and sound by Ryan Rumery.

The playing schedule for 4000 MILES is Tuesday through Saturday evenings at 8pm, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday at 2pm and Sunday at 3pm. (Please note there will be no performances on Saturday, March 17 at 2pm or Tuesday evening, April 3 at 8pm). Tickets, priced at $85 and $75, are available at the Lincoln Center Theater box office, at telecharge.com or by visiting www.lct.org. A limited number of tickets priced at $30 are available at every performance through LincTix, LCT's new program for 21 to 35 year olds. For information and to enroll, visit LincTix.org.
