CHANNELING KEVIN SPACEY Announces New Block Of Tix

Channeling Kevin Spacey, the hilarious two-person tour de force comedy which began its Off Broadway run on April 17 after three "Best of Fest" wins at the Toronto, Edmonton and Winnipeg Fringe Festivals, has released a new block of tickets for sale for performances through December 31, 2011.

Tickets ($36.50-$59.50) are available by visiting Telecharge.com or calling (212) 239-6200.

The announcement was made today by Wolf & William Productions, producers of Channeling Kevin Spacey.

Meet film buff Charlie, a meek pushover in a dead end job and a loveless relationship who shuffles through life like a Kevin Spacey character, breathlessly defeated. After a particularly soul-squashing day at work, Charlie has an epiphany and resolves to change his life by morphing into the real-life version of Al Pacino's most famous characters, resulting in a series of devastating and hilarious confrontations that makes Channeling Kevin Spacey a must-see for movie-lovers of all types.

Called "Brilliant" by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and "A Must-See" by EYE Weekly, Channeling Kevin Spacey premiered at the Winnipeg Fringe Festival in July 2008, where it promptly sold out its run and garnered the prestigious Best of Fest award. Following its success in Winnipeg it played The Edmonton Fringe, the largest theater festival in North America, where it again won Best of Fest. Channeling Kevin Spacey won that same honor at the 2009 Toronto Fringe Festival and in 2010 the show was performed to rave reviews at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts in Fort Lauderdale.

Co-author and Director Elan Wolf Farbiarz has spent the last five years producing and directing shows across the United States and Canada, receiving top honors in Toronto, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Orlando. He has authored several comedies and appeared in and produced international tours of The Bible (abridged), The Movies (abridged) and Channeling Kevin Spacey. Drawing critical success and sold out audiences in every city he has produced in, Farbiarz has garnered several Best of Fest awards throughout the fringe festival theater circuit.

Co-author Cory Terry has contributed material to the fringe hit The Movies (abridged). He has received writing accolades and awards from foreign and national pres and his work has been praised in print by dailies like The Toronto Star and The Star Phoenix and across the blogosphere.
