Soho Repertory Theatre's upcoming world premiere production of Aleshea Harris's Is God Is will be the first at the company's reopened lower Manhattan storefront at 46 Walker Street. Harris's play will run February 6-March 11, 2018, with opening night set for February 18.

The work is described as "a modern myth that follows twin sisters as they sojourn from the Dirty South to the California desert to exact righteous revenge." Taibi Magar (Underground Railroad Game) will direct the production. The cast and creative team will be announced later.

Soho Rep. previously had to close the theater in September 2016 and finish the rest of its 2016-17 season at different venues while the space was being renovated.
