Sleep No More Extends Off-Broadway for the Final-Final Time

Author KevinKevin, June 18th, 2024

But Will It Ever End, And Do We Really Want It To?

After a remarkable 13-year run at the McKittrick Hotel, the immersive hit Sleep No More has announced yet another extension, pushing its Off-Broadway closing date to September 29. This extension, humorously dubbed the "final-final" by the show's producers, responds to the overwhelming demand that has kept the show alive far longer than initially planned.

About Sleep No More

Sleep No More is a reimagining of Shakespeare's Macbeth as an interactive dance-theatre piece. It premiered on March 7, 2011, and has since captivated over two million audience members through more than 5,000 performances. The production invites its audience to explore the world of Macbeth across five floors of the McKittrick Hotel, where they don masks and immerse themselves in a non-linear narrative.

The Creatives Of Sleep No More

Produced by Emursive's Randy Weiner (known for The Donkey Show), along with Arthur Karpati and Jonathan Hochwald, and in association with Rebecca Gold Productions, Sleep No More found its home in an abandoned building in Chelsea. This venue was transformed into the McKittrick Hotel, a sprawling multi-level space that also houses dining and entertainment facilities.

The show's unique format allows theatregoers to wander freely and explore scenes, tableaux, and scenarios that bring the themes of Shakespeare's tragic play to life. Silent and masked, participants can delve into the story by opening drawers, reading private notes, and following performers. The production's distinct co-direction and choreography by Maxine Doyle, along with sound design by Stephen Dobbie and design associates Beatrice Minns and Livi Vaughan, have played key roles in its success.
