4,000 Miles by Amy HerzogDirected by Marc Maislen
After suffering a major loss while she was on a cross-country bicycle trip, Leah seeks solace from her feisty 91 year-old grandmother Vera in her West Village apartment. Over the course of a single month, these unlikely roommates infuriate, bewilder, and ultimately reach each other. 4000 Miles looks at how two outsiders find their way in today’s world.
For 2 weeks only, shows are Thursday thru Saturday, 3/26-28 & 4/2-4 at 7pm and Sundays, 3/29 & 4/5 at 2pm.

A sultry song-and-dance spectacle masking the rise of tyranny.
“Willkommen!” Step into the decadent world of 1931 Berlin, where the Kit Kat Club offers a glittering escape from a city on edge. Inside the club, the Emcee welcomes patrons to a world of jazz, scandal, and seduction. But outside, tensions mount as the Third Reich casts an ever-growing shadow. With increasing political unrest in Germany, the lines between entertainment and reality blur, and the cost of looking away becomes crystal clear. Based on Christopher Isherwood's autobiographical tales, this Tony Award-winning musical features memorable songs like “Don’t Tell Mama” and the chilling “Tomorrow Belongs to Me.” Provocative, poignant, and pulsing with energy, CABARET is a wake-up call dressed in sequins.
Tickets on sale March 3. There is no performance on Sunday, April 5.
