Max Wolf Friedlich's JOB has recouped its initial investment for its second, extended engagement Off-Broadway, which runs through March 23. The play initially premiered at SoHo Playhouse last September to critical acclaim, which also earned it an extended run.
Tony nominee Peter Friedman (Ragtime, Succession) and Sydney Lemmon (TÁR, Helstrom) reprise their roles at the Connelly Theater, where the production began performances January 19.
Directed by Michael Herwitz (Mr. Parker), the psychological thriller follows Jane (Lemmon), an employee at a big tech company who has been placed on leave after becoming the subject of a viral video. She arrives in the office of crisis therapist Loyd (Friedman) determined to be reinstated to the job that gives her life meaning.
The production features scenic design by Scott Penner, costume design by Michelle Li, lighting design by Mextly Couzin, and sound design by Jessie Char and Maxwell Neely-Cohen. Hannah Getts serves as dramaturg. ShowTown Theatricals provides general management.
JOB is produced by Hannah Getts and Alex Levy. Co-producers include Craig Balsam, Cason Crane and Fran McGill, Duncan and Chauviere, James Alefantis, Danielle Perelman, and Russell Kahn.
