💍 EPIC
🗓️ July 22 - 25

Starring comedian and content creator Tess Tregellas, Epic blends stand-up, storytelling, music, and romance into a hilarious and heartfelt journey through modern love. You may recognize Tess from her viral videos with Betches or from the wedding dress stunts that earned coverage in the New York Post.

Now presenting the cast of Race: The Movie: The Play, from the guys who watched Green Book and 12 Years a Slave.

Catch this award-winning comedy beginning June 17 at
Asylum NYC.

JUST ANNOUNCED: Race: The Movie: The Play is a wildly irreverent, razor-sharp screwball satire of prestige Hollywood race dramas. No white savior is spared in this fast-paced comedy that gleefully skewers every tone-deaf Oscar-bait trope audiences know all too well.

The story follows the brilliant Black musician Gene Yus on a concert tour through the Deep South of the 1850s escorted by Wyatt Saveyer, a rough-around-the-edges white chauffeur. But what begins as a familiar awards-season drama quickly spirals into complete comic chaos, exploding into a slapstick parody.

Winner of the New York Theater Festival’s awards for Best Script and Best Actor, Race: The Movie: The Play played an extended, sold-out run at Soho Playhouse — all with a marketing budget of exactly $0.

Playing at Asylum NYC June 17th - July 12th
