THE SEVEN YEAR DISAPPEAR To Live Stream Three Performances This Month

The New Group and nonprofit The League of Live Stream Theater (LOLST) are partnering to live stream performances of the world premiere production of The Seven Year Disappear by Jordan Seavey, directed by Scott Elliott, featuring Emmy and Tony Award-winner Cynthia Nixon and Taylor Trensch, currently running through March 31.  Live stream performances are set to take place Friday, March 29 at 7:30pm; Saturday, March 30 at 2:00pm and 8:00pm, and Sunday, March 31 at 2:00pm at The Pershing Square Signature Center (The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theatre, 480 West 42ndStreet). 

Naphtali's (Taylor Trensch) world-famous performance artist mother (Cynthia Nixon) disappeared suddenly seven years ago.  And yet, he sees her everywhere: in the faces of friends, coworkers, the guy he's flirting with.  When his mother returns with few answers and a major request, Naphtali is forced to confront what he's spent years trying to forget.  A funny, deeply human mystery of mothers and sons, coming of age, and coming apart.
