MTC's MURDER BALLAD, Featuring Karen Olivo, Will Swenson and More, Extends Through 12/2

Manhattan Theatre Club has announced that due to overwhelming demand, MURDER BALLAD, the new musical that is the inaugural production of MTC's The Studio at Stage II - Harold and Mimi Steinberg New Play Series at New York City Center - Stage II (131 West 55th Street) will extend by one week through Sunday, December 2.

Review - Through The Yellow Hour: Apocalyptic Boho Days

Perhaps the most interesting aspect of Adam Rapp's Through The Yellow Hour is that the playwright/director has intentionally written a piece that will never be performed with a completely age-appropriate cast – at least not legally in this country – since it includes a fully nude, sexually suggestive scene between a thirty-year-old character and another who is fourteen.  But because the person playing the youth is obviously of age, the scene is likely to leave audience members thinking of the older character as someone who has learned to trust and be caring again, rather than as someone committing statutory rape.
