NEWARK, NJ and NEW YORK, NY – Audible, Inc., the leading creator and provider of premium audio storytelling, and TOGETHER, the new theatrical partnership led by Sonia Friedman and Hugh Jackman, are pleased to present Jen Silverman’s new version of August Strindberg’s Creditors, with Liev Schreiber, Maggie Siff, and Justice Smith, beginning performances this Saturday, May 10 at Audible’s Minetta Lane Theatre in New York City (18 Minetta Lane, between MacDougal & 6th Avenue).
Adi, a struggling painter, finds his creative spark reignited by Gustav, a magnetic stranger at an isolated sea-side hotel. Their connection is instant and intimate, but what seems like a chance encounter quickly twists into something far darker, as Gustav becomes intrigued by Adi’s wife, the dazzling Tekla. Talk into the night devolves into an intricate web of deception, seduction and revelation, where the lives of all involved may be destroyed or transformed. The cast of Jen Silverman’s gripping adaptation of August Strindberg’s psychological thriller, Creditors, features Liev Schreiber, Maggie Siff, and Justice Smith.
Playing 27 performances only, Creditors runs through Wednesday, June 18 in repertory with the New York stage premiere of Hannah Moscovitch’s Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes, with Ella Beatty and Hugh Jackman. Both plays are directed by Ian Rickson.
As part of a unique collaboration to make these performances accessible to a wide range of audiences, 25% of all tickets can be purchased on the day of every performance, starting Sunday, May 11^th, for $35, in two ways:

About TOGETHER
Working alongside artistic director Ian Rickson, TOGETHER will stage short runs of fully rehearsed, full-length plays, along with readings, panel discussions and other events in the US, UK, and beyond. The focus will be on collaboration, ensemble, equal pay for actors, and shared creative credit. By stripping the fully rehearsed productions down to their essentials, with minimal décor, TOGETHER aims to celebrate the raw power of storytelling — getting back to what often makes theater so compelling in the first place.
Performances will take place in small venues, where established actors will perform just feet from the audience, creating an intimate, elemental experience and heightened sense of community. Above all, TOGETHER is committed to keeping its productions genuinely affordable for a large proportion of the house and open to as many people as possible.
