Tickets are now on sale to see stage and screen favorite Justin Bartha and Emmy nominee Elizabeth Reaser in the world premiere of Permission. Alex Timbers will direct the Robert Askins comedy, which will begin performances at off-Broadway’s Lucille Lortel Theatre on April 29 and run through June 7. The MCC production will officially open on May 20, not the previously announced May 19.
Permission tells the story of Eric and Cyndy, a couple who decide to follow the leads of their friends and make Christian Domestic Discipline the foundation of their marriage. The new moral code upends everything they knew about one another, their friends and more importantly, who really holds the paddle.
The cast will also include Nicole Lowrance, Talene Monahon and Lucas Near-Verbrugghe.
