The Public Theater's upcoming world premiere of Itamar Moses' The Ally has extended its run, with performances now scheduled to continue through March 17. The play begins performances February 15 at the Off-Broadway company's Anspacher Theater. Opening night is February 27.
Josh Radnor is leading the cast, alongside Cherise Boothe as Nakia and Rabbi, Elijah Jones as Baron, Michael Khalid Karadsheh as Farid, Joy Osmanski as Gwen, Ben Rosenfield as Reuven, and Madeline Weinstein as Rachel.
