Love and Information extends by two weeks

The New York Theatre Workshop (NYTW) have extended their American premiere of Caryl Churchill's Love and Information by two weeks, the production will now run through to 06 Apr 2014.

Love and Information, directed by James MacDonald, opened at the Minetta Lane Theatre on 19 Feb 2014, following previews from 04 Feb 2014, where it was originally scheduled to close on 23 Mar 2014.

Love and Information: Someone sneezes. Someone can't get a signal. Someone shares a secret. Someone won't answer the door. Someone put an elephant on the stairs. Someone's not ready to talk. Someone is her brother's mother. Someone hates irrational numbers. Someone told the police. Someone got a message from the traffic light. Someone's never felt like this before.

Caryl Churchill returns for her seventh American premiere at New York Theatre Workshop with a theatrical kaleidoscope exploring more than a hundred characters as they try to make sense of what they find out.

The show opened to mixed reviews: Indulge in this bubbling mud bath of life (newyorktheatreguide.com); Sharp-minded, tenderhearted (NY Times); Hardly makes for stirring theater (Record).

The American premiere of Love and Information feature Phillip James Brannon, Randy Danson, Susannah Flood, Noah Galvin, Jennifer Ikeda, Karen Kandel, Irene Sofia Lucio, Nate Miller, Kellie Overbey, Adante Power, John Procaccino, Lucas Caleb Rooney, Maria Tucci, James Waterston and Zoe Winters.

The creative team features sets by Miriam Buether, costumes by Gabriel Berry and Andrea Hood, lighting by Peter Mumford and sound Christopher Shutt.

Love and Information had its world premiere at London's Royal Court from 06 Sep - 13 Oct 2012, also directed by James McDonald.
