The New One by Mike Birbiglia @ Cherry Lane (reports and Student Rush)

has anyone seen this new piece from Mike Birbiglia?

When asked what it’s about, Birbiglia is reluctant to say much. “I hate it when people tell me what anything is about or really any details at all. Last year I loved Lady Bird, Get Out and The Big Sick and my greatest gift to my friends was to tell them to see those movies and don’t read anything about them. So that’s what I’m telling the people interested in this show. If you liked my other shows and movies, I think you’ll love The New One.

Directed by Seth Barrish (Thank God For Jokes, Sleepwalk With Me, The Tricky Part), Mike Birbiglia: The New One has set design by Beowulf Boritt (Sleepwalk With Me, On The Town, Act One for which he won the Tony® Award).



Also, has anyone tried for this????

"Up to 10 student rush tickets available for each performance, priced at $29 each. A valid student ID is required and tickets will go on sale 90 minutes before each performance."

Saw it thursday and loved it, the less you know going in the better.

Saw this yesterday and really enjoyed it. I've been a fan of his for years and this isn't my favorite work of his (I think "My Secret Public Journal" is) but this was still outright hilarious at certain times.

Also, they said he had a "teddy bear physique." Is this no worse than Umphrees review in the same paper, but because it's a man there's no outrage? I'd be super offended if that's how I was described.
