The first official trailer of comedian Mike Birbiglia's Sundance selected indie SLEEPWALK WITH ME has been released. Based on his stage comedy which originally played at off-Broadway’s Bleecker Street Theatre in 2008, Birbiglia writes, co-directs and stars in the film which features ONCE star Cristin Milioti. Check out the trailer below!

In 'Sleepwalk With Me', Mike Birbiglia plays a burgeoning stand-up comedian struggling with the stress of a stalled career, a stale relationship threatening to race out of his control, and the wild spurts of severe sleepwalking he is desperate to ignore. Produced and co-written by Ira Glass (NPR’s “This American Life”) the film also stars Lauren Ambrose, Carol Kane, Cristin Milioti, James Rebhorn and plenty of other great stand-up comedians. The film hits limited theaters on August 24th. 

Cristin Milioti currently stars in the Tony-Award winning musical ONCE. Her other Broadway credits include The Lieutenant of Inishmore and Coram Boy. Off-Broadway credits include Once, The Little Foxes, Stunning (Lucille Lortel nom.), That Face, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, The Retributionists, Crooked.

On TV she has appeared in "30 Rock," "Nurse Jackie," "The Good Wife," and "The Sopranos." Her film credits include Year of the Carnivore, Sleepwalk With Me, and The Brass Teapot.
