Thriller 'Job' Transfers To Broadway
Max Wolf Friedlich's Psychological Thriller Arrives in New York
Max Wolf Friedlich's Job', which garnered widespread acclaim during its Off-Broadway presentations at SoHo Playhouse in 2023 and later at the Connelly Theatre in the subsequent winter season, is arriving at Broadway with its initial cast ensemble in the latter part of this summer.
The production will feature the talents of Peter Friedman, a Tony Award-nominated actor celebrated for his work in 'Ragtime' and 'Succession', and Sydney Lemmon, known for her roles in 'TR' and 'Helstrom'. They will return to their roles in this suspense-laden drama. The direction will be under the guidance of Michael Herwitz, who also directed the first Off-Broadway showing. The Hayes Theater will open its doors for preview performances starting on July 15, leading up to the premiere on July 30, and the play will be on for a limited run until September 29.
What is 'Job' about?
Everybody wants to go viral, right? Wrong. Jane is on administrative leave from her job after a video of her spread all over the internet, awarding her with the fame she neither wanted nor needed. Crisis therapist Loyd steps in and together they work through the problems to try and get Jane fit for work again.
