Roundabout reveals new opening date for On The Exhale
Roundabout Theatre Company has announced a new opening date for the second production of its 2016-2017 Underground series - the world premiere of On The Exhale, written by Martín Zimmerman and directed by Tony nominee Leigh Silverman. The solo play will now officially open on February 19, 2017 (instead of February 28). Previews begin at the Black Box Theatre at Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre on February 7, 2017 and the limited engagement runs through to April 2, 2017.
On The Exhale stars Tony nominee Marin Ireland.
Synopsis: "When a senseless act of violence changes her life forever, a liberal college professor finds herself inexplicably drawn to the very weapon used to perpetrate the crime—and to the irresistible feeling of power that comes from holding life and death in her hands. Peering down the barrel of a uniquely American crisis, she begins to suspect that when it comes to gun violence, we're all part of the problem."
The creative team will be announced at a later date.
Marin Ireland earned a Tony nomination in 2009 for her Broadway debut in 'Reasons To Be Pretty.' Other Broadway credits include 'After Miss Julie' and 'The Big Knife.' She has starred off-Broadway in 'Ironbound' and 'Kill Floor' and her screen credits include "Hell or High Water," "Glass Chin," and "Homeland."
