Time Out New York applauds Mike Birbiglia and Sleepwalk With Me, saying "his time has finally come!" and The New York Daily News cheers, "The Manhattan comic has such an endearing, laid back persona, as well as such perfect timing, that it all threads together in a funny, touching whole."

In his theatrical debut, comedian Mike Birbiglia takes the audience on a hysterically funny and intensely personal journey through his struggles with sleepwalking and his reluctance to confront his fears of love, honesty and growing up.
