On behalf of the Cast & Production Team of The Permanent Night, I would like to take the time to say a big THANK YOU!
It's been a week since our last show and it is beginning to sink in on what a wonderful experience it was. Thank you for all your support and for coming to the show to share in the laughs and tears. All the accolades would not have been as precious without all of you.
We are currently in the process of rolling up our sleeves and working towards having an extended run. So stay tuned...First on the agenda is establishing the Performing Arts Company that Kari and I have wanted to start when this journey all began.
If you are interested in helping out, getting involved, or joining the team, please feel free to contact me.
Many thanks again.

OUTTAKES FROM THE PHOTOSHOOT!
Hi everyone! TPN had a very successful photoshoot on July 2, thanks to our fantastic photographer
Ka-Man Tse. She did a brilliant job for us and we couldn't be thankful enough. The final photo we chose for the postcard is completely amazing.
The photos were taken at
Carl Schurz Park, right on the East Side Promenade near the river. The whole area surrounding was the inspiration for the setting of the play, as Kari lived in Yorkville during the blackout of 2003 and spent the good part of that night roaming the neighborhood, taking in the sights and sounds of a city gone dark. It was a beautiful day and everything went off without a hitch.
We're in the process of getting the final photos ready for our various websites, but in the meantime, here are some outtakes that Romina took with her digital camera. We had a blast!

WE HAVE OUR VENUE!!!
THE PERMANENT NIGHT will be debuting at The Barrow Street Theatre.
The Barrow Street Theatre is a 199 seat Off-Broadway house, located just off 7th Avenue South in the heart of the West Village. It is convenient to most of the major subway lines in New York City, and is close to a wealth of restaurants, cafes, bars and cultural institutions. Additionally, The Barrow Street Theatre is located inside the Greenwich House, which is a landmark building in New York City established in 1902. As you can see from the photos, it is a beautiful building with a rich history in a historic area.
Soon, we will have a list of restaurants, bars, and the like that you can visit when you come see the show! We are also planning our fundraisers for sometime next month, which will be a great opportunity to meet all of us and have a cocktail (or two!).
On a personal note, this is Kari Bentley-Quinn's absolute favorite neighborhood in New York City, and The Barrow Street Theatre is Kat Garson's favorite theatre. We can't help but wonder how we got so lucky. A big thank you to Fringe for giving us such a fantastic home!
A special thanks to those who have donated money so far. Remember, you can make a donation based on the information here, get cool merchandise at our Cafe Press store, or send a gift of any size on PayPal. The address is thepermanentnight@gmail.com.
We should have our dates and times for you by next week, and tickets will go on sale Mid-July. Stay tuned for all the latest! Thanks for all of your support!
Check out the places to go in the beautiful neighborhood around The Barrow Street Theatre. There are plenty of restaurants, bars,, and boutiques to enjoy a fun-filled day in New York City...
