59E59 Theaters Extends Run of A EULOGY FOR ROMAN for One Week

Due to popular demand, A Eulogy for Roman will play an additional week of performances at 59E59 Theaters. Written and performed by Brendan George, and conceived and directed by Peter Charney, A Eulogy for Roman began previews on August 8 in 59E59’s Theater C (59 E 59th Street, New York, NY 10022) and opens tomorrow, August 12. Originally set to close on August 27, A Eulogy for Roman will now run through September 3, 2023.          
 
Meet Milo, a nervous young man who shares the stage with an urn. But things aren’t as dark as they seem. 
 
Milo is trying to give a eulogy for his friend Roman, but the ceremony proves unexpectedly difficult, and attendees are voluntarily enlisted to help him complete the memorial. Together, they celebrate life, confront death, and make a promise of their own.
 
After a sold-out run in last year's East to Edinburgh festival and a critically-acclaimed world premiere at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, A Eulogy for Roman returns to New York City for its Off Broadway debut.
 
The performance schedule for A Eulogy for Roman is as follows: Tuesday – Saturday at 7:30PM, Saturday - Sunday at 2:30PM.
 
Tickets to A Eulogy for Roman begin at $30 and are on sale now at 59e59.org/shows/show-detail/a-eulogy-for-roman.
