MTC announces 1-week extension for Sell/Buy/Date

The Manhattan Theatre Club has announced a 1-week extension for its current off-Broadway production of sellbuydate10oct2016.htm Sell/Buy/Date, written and performed by Sarah Jones and directed by Carolyn Cantor, which began previews on 27 September 2016 at New York City Center's Studio at Stage II and officially opened on 18 October. The final performance will now take place on 20 November 2016.

Synopsis: "Tony Award-winning writer, performer and activist Sarah Jones returns to the New York stage as a medley of characters in Sell/Buy/Date, a new play inspired by the real-life experiences of people affected by the commercial sex industry. Through her masterful, multicultural characterizations, Jones explores an array of diverse perspectives on a fascinating and incendiary subject, all while preserving the full humanity and humor of voices seldom heard in the theater."

The creative team behind Sell/Buy/Date features scenic and costume design by Dane Laffrey, lighting design by Eric Southern, and sound design by Bray Poor.
