Eccentric Theater Company is proud to announce that after a sold out run at FringeNYC, ZAMBONI will return for a five performance engagement as part of the Fringe Encore Series. The original FringeNYC run of ZAMBONI was loved by audiences and critics alike, and received a Fringe Excellence Award for Direction.

This limited extension runs October 3-15 on the Mainstage at SoHo Playhouse.

Jamie has resurfaced the ice rink for decades - frozen in isolation, unnoticed by the world around him. But now, everything is about to change...

ZAMBONI is written by Sean-Patrick O'Brien and directed by New York Innovative Theatre award winner Leslie Kincaid Burby.

Sometimes all it takes is a strong story and basic storytelling to make the perfect Fringe play. Those were the main ingredients of Sean-Patrick O'Brien's nearly flawless ZAMBONI.

- Michael Block, Theater in the Now

Mr. Franchini fills his character with uncertainty, frailty, instability, and addiction all the while showing the strength to attempt to overcome temptations, change his inevitable destiny and search for a love he has never experienced. It is a performance that is not easy to watch but should not be missed.

- Joseph Verlezza, Theatre Reviews Limited
