Audible Theater has given a second and final extension to its current Off-Broadway offering, Mexodus, at the Minetta Lane, which will now continue through November 1. The show opened September 18—see what critics had to say here.

Mexodus will be recorded for release as an Audible Original. David Mendizábal is directing.

The work looks to uncover the stories behind overlooked portions of the Underground Railroad that led into Mexico, with both co-writers Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson also performing in the "live-looping" musical. The play is making its New York debut after three earlier stagings, at Baltimore Center Stage, Washington, D.C's Mosaic Theater Company, and California's Berkeley Repertory Theatre. The piece also got a developmental staging at New York Stage and Film.
