Playwrights Horizons has extended its current production--the New York premiere of Bruce Norris' The Pain and the Itch--through October 15th

Bruce Norris' wonderfully vicious and somewhat disturbing dark comedy targets smart, educated and supposedly open-minded ladder-climbers whose left-wing activism is generally defined by watching PBS

Playwrights Horizons will open its 2006/2007 season with the New York premiere of The Pain and the Itch, the controversial comedy by Bruce Norris that was a a hit in Chicago during its 2005 world premiere production at Steppenwolf Theatre Company

Jayne Houdyshell, Mia Barron, Peter Jay Fernandez and more will star in The Pain and the Itch, running at Playwrights Horizons from September 1st through October 8th
