Everybody by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins Gets Extended at Signature

Signature Theatre has extended its world premiere of Everybody, a new play by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins. Now running through March 17, with opening night on February 21, the production is directed by Lila Neugebauer.

The cast includes Jocelyn Bioh (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time), Obie Award-winner Brooke Bloom (Cloud Nine), Michael Braun (The Crucible), Obie Award-winner Marylouise Burke (Ripcord), Louis Cancelmi (Blasted), Lilyana Tiare Cornell (Les Misérables), Obie Award-winner David Patrick Kelly (Thérèse Raquin), Lakisha Michelle May (Boardwalk Empire), Chris Perfetti (Cloud Nine).

The creative team includes Laura Jellinek (scenic design), Gabriel Berry (costume design), Matt Frey (lighting design), Brandon Wolcott (sound design).
