The Aubrey Plaza and Christopher Abbott-led Off-Broadway production of Danny and the Deep Blue Sea—which recently extended its run through January 13—has recouped its initial investment after the initial 11-week run, which included 15 previews and 71 regular performances.

The revival of John Patrick Shanley's play officially opened November 13, 2023. Read the reviews here.

The play follows Danny and Roberta, two desperate people in the Bronx who have a chance meeting in a dive bar. Abbott and Plaza play Danny and Roberta, respectively.

Jeff Ward makes his stage directorial debut with the production, which features movement by Bobbi Jene Smith and Or Schraiber, scenic design by Scott Pask, lighting design by John Torres, costume design by Arianne Phillips, and sound design by Kate Marvin.

Danny and the Deep Blue Sea is produced by Sam Rockwell and Mark Berger’s Play Hooky Productions, Seaview, Sue Wagner, and John Johnson by special arrangement with the Lucille Lortel Theatre. The play premiered Off-Broadway in 1984 at Circle in the Square Theatre Downtown.
