The Cherry Lane Theatre has become the go-to off-Broadway theater for stand-up comedians transitioning into solo shows on a bigger stage. Colin Quinn, Mike Birbiglia, Hasan Minhaj, and, most recently, Alex Edelman have all had great runs with their respective solo shows that had humble beginnings at various stages in and around NYC.
Now, Alison Leiby will join be the latest addition to the pantheon of comedians to play The Cherry Lane Theatre as her critically acclaimed Oh God, An Hour About Abortion that has made the rounds at Caveat, Union Hall, etc. is now going to be Ilana Glazer Presents Oh God, a Show About Abortion with veteran theater director Lila Neugebauer on board. The show itself is very likely one of the more timely solo shows out there at the moment, considering the rise in anti-abortion legislation in the U.S. over the last few years.
Leiby’s run will go from Mon. Apr. 25th-Sat. Jun. 4th @ 7PM ET with a 3PM ET Saturday matinee, except for May 5th and 30th. Also, a single Sunday performance of Oh God, a Show About Abortion will happen on May 29th @ 7PM ET.
Tickets starts at $37 and highly suggest you snag them right now at ohgodshow.com.
