The world premiere of Anna K. Jacobs and Michael R. Jackson's Teeth has announced another two-week extension Off-Broadway. The new musical, which already extended once, was slated to end its run April 14. Performances will now continue through April 28 at Playwrights Horizons. 

Teeth officially opened March 19, after beginning performances February 21. Read the reviews here. 

Based on the 2007 horror comedy film of the same name, Teeth follows evangelical Christian teenager Dawn O'Keefe, whose body bites back when men try to violate her. Sarah Benson directs and Raja Feather Kelly choreographs the work, which explores the battling forces of sexuality and religion, revenge and transformation. Lyrics are by Jackson, music is by Jacobs, and the book was penned by both. It is presented by Playwrights Horizons in special arrangement with Mark Gordon Pictures and LD Entertainment.

The cast includes Alyse Alan Louis (Amélie) as Dawn O’Keefe, Steven Pasquale as Pastor Bill O'Keefe, Courtney Bassett (Natasha, Pierre, & the Great Comet of 1812) as Promise Keeper Girl Becky, Phoenix Best (Dear Evan Hansen, The Color Purple) as Promise Keeper Girl Fiona, Will Connolly (Once) as Brad O’Keefe, Jason Gotay as Tobey/Truthseeker, Jenna Rose Husli as Promise Keeper Girl Trisha, Jared Loftin as Ryan/Truthseeker, Lexi Rhoades as Promise Keeper Girl Rachael, Wren Rivera as Promise Keeper Girl Stephanie, and Helen J Shen as Promise Keeper Girl Keke. Casting is by Taylor Williams and Alaine Alldaffer.
