Today ? even as Joe Turner's Come and Gone nears the end of its local run and Artistic Director Tony Taccone is Taking Over Manhattan with Danny Hoch ? the company announced an extension for its production of The Arabian Nights.

Written and directed by Mary Zimmerman (Argonautika), 'The Arabian Nights' was adapted from 'The Book of the Thousand Nights and One Night.' The show was set designed by Daniel Ostling and costumed by Mara Blumenfeld. TJ Gerckens did the lights and Andre Pluess and Ben Sussman were in charge of sound.

Next month, Tony Award-winning director Mary Zimmerman returns to Berkeley Repertory Theatre with an alluring adaptation of The Arabian Nights. This is Zimmerman's sixth trip to Berkeley Rep, and for the first time she works her magic on the intimate Thrust Stage. The Arabian Nights runs from November 13 through January 4 with the official press night on November 19.

Ten days before Mary Zimmerman unveils THE ARABIAN NIGHTS at Berkeley Repertory Theatre, fans of her work will have an opportunity to peek inside the process of creating a play with this Tony Award-winning director. Zimmerman will be interviewed on November 3 during Page to Stage - the second installment in Berkeley Rep's annual trio of talks with eminent theatre artists.
