This Wide Night extends by one week

The Naked Angels-produced American premiere of This Wide Night, starring two-time Golden Globe and three-time Emmy Award-winner Edie Falco and Tony nominee Alison Pill, has now extended its limited engagement by one week and will now play its final performance on 27 Jun 2010.

Written by Chloe Moss and directed by Anne Kauffman, This Wide Night opened at the Peter Jay Sharp Theater on 16 May 2010, following previews from 8 May and was originally scheduled to close on 20 Jun 2010.

This Wide Night: A prison sentence isn't over once you leave jail. Having just begun to rebuild a life on the outside, Marie (Pill) is confronted with her past when former cellmate Lorraine (Falco) shows up unannounced on her doorstep. The two outcasts, once so close on the inside, struggle to navigate a friendship beyond the prison walls - which may threaten their prospects to start over. This Wide Night is a portrait of two lost souls trying to find their way in an unforgiving world.

This Wide Night was commissioned and first produced by Clean Break - a London-based theatre company that works with women affected by the criminal justice system - and premiered in July 2008 at The Soho Theatre in London. The Times in London called the play "comic, colorful, full of pain and tenderness and truth. Raw and riveting."

In 2009 the play was awarded the prestigious Susan Smith Blackburn Prize honoring women playwrights in the English-speaking theatre.

The creative team features sets by Rachel Hauck, costumes by Emily Rebholz, lighting by Matt Frey and sound by Robert Kaplowitz.
