New Dates Set for CENTER OF THE YOUNIVERSE Starring Tituss Burgess & Jane Krakowski

Audible Inc. has announced new performance dates for Center of the YOUniverse, a new show starring six-time Emmy Award nominee Tituss Burgess ("Schmigadoon!," "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," "Central Park," The Little Mermaid) and Tony Award winner Jane Krakowski ("Schmigadoon!," "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," "30 Rock," Nine). Due to scheduling changes, the three-night-only production will now play Thursday, July 27 through Saturday, July 29 at Audible's Minetta Lane Theatre (18 Minetta Lane, between MacDougal & 6th Avenue - one block south of W. 3rd Street), Audible's creative home for live performances in New York. Directing is Tony Award winner Christopher Gattelli ("Schmigadoon!," Newsies, The King and I).

Tickets are available exclusively to Audible members now through Wednesday, April 12 at 11:59pm ET. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Thursday, April 13 at 12:00pm ET at www.audible.com/minettalane.

Center of the YOUniverse will also be recorded live from the Minetta Lane Theatre and released on Audible at a later date, extending its reach to millions of listeners around the world.

Center of the YOUniverse is an out-of-this-world spectacle starring Tituss Burgess and Jane Krakowski with music, laughter, and (probably) the salvation of humanity from its self-inflicted doom. Unaware of just how brightly the other one shines, Tituss and Jane will attempt the impossible: a double-booking. In a unique blend of song and storytelling, they'll stop at nothing to upstage each other and steal the spotlight...until they realize the true purpose of being ridiculously attractive and having immeasurable talent: to unite and heal the world. It's an outrageously fun and weird show full of pop and theatrical duets. A clash of divas and dueling vocals. It's the show the world didn't know it needed until reading this blurb.

The show's creative team includes Riw Rakkulchon (scenic design), Jeff Croiter (lighting design), Brian Ronan (sound design), and Dan Garmon (music director). Technical supervision for the production is by Hudson Theatrical Associates with general management by Baseline Theatrical's Jonathan Whitton.
