Carey Mulligan Takes The Stage Beginning Tomorrow in GIRLS & BOYS

BAFTA Award winner and Academy & Tony Award nominee Carey Mulligan (Skylight, An Education) begins performances tomorrow - Tuesday, June 12 - in Girls & Boys, the shattering new play by Dennis Kelly (Matilda The Musical, Taking Care of Baby) and directed by Olivier Award winner Lyndsey Turner (Machinal, Chimerica).

Audible, Inc., the world's largest seller and producer of downloadable audiobooks and other spoken-word entertainment, produces the limited five-week-only engagement at the Minetta Lane Theatre (18 Minetta Lane, between MacDougal & 6th Avenue - one block south of W. 3rd Street), following its critically acclaimed world premiere earlier this spring at The Royal Court Theatre in London. Opening night at the Minetta Lane, Audible's creative home for live performances in New York, is set for Wednesday, June 20.

Audible will also record and release Carey Mulligan's acclaimed performance as an audio play, extending its reach to millions of listeners around the world. Preorders are now available at https://www.audible.com/pd/Drama-Poetry/Girls-Boys-Audiobook/B07DD2H7TD.

They met at an airport and fell for each other. But in time, they would meet their fate as it all falls apart. A pulse-pounding new play from Tony Award-winning playwright Dennis Kelly takes you on a journey that is at once hilarious, gripping and heartbreaking. Don't miss this one-woman masterpiece that the Telegraph calls "a devastating tour de force from Carey Mulligan." Time Out London cheers: "Lyndsey Turner's production is a knock-out. A Hollywood megastar holding her own in an experimental but somehow also massively crowd-pleasing solo show-this is pretty rare."

The creative team for Girls & Boys includes Es Devlin (set design), Jack Galloway (costume design), Luke Halls (video design), Oliver Fenwick (lighting design), David McSeveney (sound design), and Joseph Alford (movement).
