After a successful run at this summer's New York International Fringe Festival, Oblivious To Everyone will return for a limited engagement at Theatre Row from October 27th to November 18th.

The show is a one-woman schizophrenic comedy written and performed by Jessica Lynn Johnson and directed by Christopher Sorensen.

Oblivious To Everyone "explores the media's portrayal of and influence on the style and psyche of the modern woman. The play centers around the character of Carrie, a self-proclaimed smut-aholic and avid talk show watcher, who is seeking psychiatric evaluation after repeated complaints from friends and family about her alleged multiple personalities. Rapidly flipping identities like TV stations, the audience will discover just how oblivious this Paris Hilton wannabe really is."

Playwright/Performer Jessica Lynn Johnson received her BFA in Theatre Performance from Missouri State University. For more information on the show and Jessica, visit www.jessicalynnjohnson.com.

Director Christopher Sorensen is a graduate of the Rutgers Professional Actor Training Program, where he studied under William Esper. He has since gone on to direct/teach at Cornell University, the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, the Atlantic Theatre Company School and Interlochen Center for the Arts.

The Studio Theatre in the Theatre Row Complex is located at 410 West 42nd Street between 9th and 10th Avenues. The show performs on the following dates: Friday 10/27, Saturday 10/28, Friday 11/3, Saturday 11/4, Wednesday 11/15, Thursday 11/16, and Saturday 11/18 at 7 PM.
