'MISTAKES WERE MADE' OPENS AT BARROW STREET THEATRE

Oscar nominee Michael Shannon stars as an Off-Broadway producer in the New York City premiere of Craig Wright's new comedy MISTAKES WERE MADE. The play opened Nov. 14 after beginning previews on Nov. 5. Mistakes Were Made is directed by Dexter Bullard, and also features Mierka Girten opposite Shannon. 

Mistakes Were Made is billed as a character study "of a man seeking redemption, but inescapably creating destruction." Felix gets in "way over his fast-talking head when he takes on a gargantuan epic about the French Revolution which he thinks is going to be his ticket to professional and personal reclamation."

Starry Night Entertainment associate produces what New York Magazine calls "a glorious absurdist showpiece." The New York Times says "Michael Shannon is excellent!" and Backstage declares "it's explosively funny! Mistakes Were Made is 100 minutes of high-octane bliss with a tour de force turn from Michael Shannon. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard at the theatre. Supremely enjoyable!"
