Today, October 27, 2024, Broadway says goodbye to Job, which takes its final bow at the Hayes Theatre Theatre following 17 previews and 103 regular performances. The venue will soon be home to Cult of Love, which begins performances on November 20, 2025.
Job was written by Max Wolf Friedlich, directed by Michael Herwitz, and stars original cast members Peter Friedman and Sydney Lemmon.
After being placed on leave following a viral incident, Jane would do anything to return to her Big Tech-company job. But as the therapist who needs to authorize it, Loyd suspects her work might be doing more harm than good.
The JOB creative team featured scenic design by Scott Penner, costume design by Michelle J. Li, lighting design by Mextly Couzin, sound design by Cody Spencer, and original music by Devonté Hynes. Rachel A. Zucker will serve as Production Stage Manager while ShowTown Theatricals/Samuel Dallas will serve as the General Manager. Hannah Getts serves as dramaturg. The understudies for JOB are Jeff Still (Loyd) and Arianna Gayle Stucki (Jane).
JOB originally premiered Off-Broadway at SoHo Playhouse in fall of 2023 where it became a sold-out smash. It subsequently transferred to the Connelly Theatre for a second standing-room-only run. JOB was nominated for the Outer Critics Circle’s John Gassner Award for playwright Max Wolf Friedlich.
