CAPTURE NOW, a new play by Josh Jonas, will be given its world premiere Off-Broadway this fall, beginning previews October 10 prior to opening October 22 at The Theatres at 45 Bleecker Street (45 Bleecker Street) in Manhattan, it has been announced by the play's producers Kurt Peterson and Jane Bergere.

Written and performed by Josh Jonas and set on Long Island, CAPTURE NOW is a unique coming-of-age story about teenage Elijah and his little brother Ace, who learn from each other about rock ' roll, what it means to be cool and who they would die for.

His acting credits include the New York premiere of Obie Award-winner Scott Organ's BELLY OF THE WHALE and Bryden Macdonald's DIVINITY BASH, as well as having played the lead in Billy Drago's film "Worn Like a Tattoo."
