Roundabout Theatre Company has announced that the upcoming world premiere, Off-Broadway production of Joshua Harmon's Significant Other, directed by Trip Cullman, will feature Barbara Barrie (Helene), John Behlmann (Will/Conrad/Tony), Sas Goldberg (Kiki), Gideon Glick (Jordan), Lindsay Mendez (Laura), Carra Patterson (Vanessa) and Luke Smith (Gideon/Evan/Roger).

Significant Other begins preview performances Off-Broadway on Thursday, May 21, 2015 and opens officially on Thursday, June 18, 2015 at the Laura Pels Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre (111 West 46th Street). This is a limited engagement through Sunday, August 16, 2015.

A quarter-life coming-of-age story that's as hilarious as it is heart-wrenching, Significant Other takes us into the trenches of single life in the city. Jordan Berman would love to be in love, but that's easier said than done. So until he meets Mr. Right, he wards off lonely nights with his trio of close-knit girlfriends. But as singles' nights turn into bachelorette parties, Jordan finds that supporting the ones you love can be just as impossible as finding love itself.

Roundabout Theatre Company's relationship with Joshua Harmon began when his play Bad Jews was selected for the inaugural Roundabout Underground Reading Series for Emerging Playwrights in February 2012. The play then premiered at Roundabout Underground's Black Box in Fall 2012, in a sold-out extended run. In Fall 2013, Harmon's Bad Jews moved upstairs to the 420-seat Laura Pels Theatre, enjoying a critically acclaimed extended engagement, and was the third most produced play around the country this season. In addition to Significant Other, a third Harmon play is in development, commissioned by Roundabout, with workshops set to begin in 2015.

The creative team includes: Mark Wendland (Sets), Japhy Weideman (Lighting), Kaye Voyce (Costumes), Jill Du Boff (Sound) and Sam Pinkleton (Choreography).

Tickets for Significant Other are available by calling 212.719.1300, online at roundabouttheatre.org, and in person at Roundabout's Laura Pels Theatre Box office (111 West 46th Street). All tickets are $79.
