Audible Theater has announced an extension for Michael Cruz Kayne's self-authored show Sorry For Your Loss, directed by Josh Sharp. Due to demand, the production will now run through Saturday, June 10 at the Minetta Lane Theatre (18 Minetta Lane, between MacDougal & 6th Avenue - one block south of W. 3rd Street), Audible's creative home for live performances in New York. Sorry For Your Loss will also be recorded and released on Audible at a later date, extending its reach to millions of listeners around the world.
This seven-week limited engagement will officially open Monday, May 8. Sorry For Your Loss continues Audible Theater's fifth season of shows at the Minetta Lane.
Like all the world's most insightful theatrical works, it began with a tweet. On the tenth anniversary of a profound loss, comedian Michael Cruz Kayne felt compelled to describe his feelings of grief in 140 characters or less. Much to his surprise, hundreds of thousands came back with shows of support from all corners of the globe. Overwhelmed by the response, the Late Show with Stephen Colbert writer and host of A Good Cry created Sorry for Your Loss, a sidesplitting, heartrending look at life-and death. This powerfully personal world premiere cuts through the platitudes, directly reaching out to anyone who has ever experienced loss-or will. So... everyone.
The creative team for Sorry For Your Loss includes Josh Sharp (director), Brett Banakis (scenic design), Rodrigo Muñoz (costume design), Cha See (lighting design), Connor Wang (sound design), and Aaron Rhyne (projection design). Garrett Kerr is Production Stage Manager. Technical supervision is by Hudson Theatrical Associates with general management by Baseline Theatrical's Jonathan Whitton.
Audible Theater is pleased to offer several post-show talkback events throughout the run of Sorry For Your Loss that reflect the themes of the show:
