Thanks to PAC NYC and all of you who came to see The Following Evening.
Thanks, Lauren Collins-Hughes & Jeanette Spicer, for this extensive feature & photo essay about Paul, Ellen, Abby, Michael and The Following Evening in the New York Times. (Oh, and if the shows are sold out at PAC, keep checking back as tickets are sometimes released last minute. Or follow us on social, and we’ll find a way to get you in.)
Landed here in Groningen, one of our homes-away-from-home for five preview performances of The Following Evening at the Noorderzon Festival. So great to finally get this work in front of audiences before we bring it home next year.
For the first time ever, all three parts of A THOUSAND WAYS are happening all at once. Thanks to the team of the Israel Festival in Jerusalem for pulling off this brave feat. Shalom.

On the air! Weekend Edition on WNYC, David Furst and Jennifer Vanasco talking about A Thousand Ways, Parts One and Two.
“It’s really deeply transformative. It does what the best theater does – creates a sense of empathy, builds a bridge between you and someone who might not be like you at all.”
A Thousand Ways (Part Two) is up and running in NYC, installed inside multiple venues at The Public Theater.
A Critic’s Pick from Laura Collins-Hughes from the NY Times.
“It is a joy; even if it scares you, go. This is a work of inquisitive humanity and profound gentleness, which over the course of an hour buffs away the armor that lets us proceed through our days brusque, numb and antagonistic.”
