Playwright and "Narrator" - Stan Zimmerman
Director - Meghan Finn

The Tank presents a limited run of Stan Zimmerman’s suicide awareness play, Right before I go. Joining Zimmerman (Golden Girls, Gilmore Girls), who will be playing the “Narrator” for Week 1, will be five-time Tony nominee/two-time Tony winner Donna Murphy, Patrick Page (Hadestown, The Gilded Age), Maulik Pancholy (30 Rock), and Peppermint (RuPaul’s Drag Race). Week 2 cast, again with Zimmerman, includes Hill Harper (The Good Doctor), Marilu Henner (Taxi), Troy Iwata (The Daily Show) and Juliana Joel (Raven’s Home). The show incorporates real suicide notes from well-known people to war veterans, LGBTQ+ members and kids that were bullied, but ultimately ending on a message of hope. It will be directed by The Tank’s Artistic Director Meghan Finn and performed Sunday and Monday nights @7pm during September (Suicide Prevention Month) at NYC’s The Tank theatre. Performance dates are September 7, 8, 14, 15. Tickets/info at: www.thetanknyc.org

Following the one-hour performance will be a Talk Back moderated Week 1 by NYC Councilman Erik Bottcher and Week 2 by writer Keli Goff (And Just Like That). A local mental health professional will also participate in each Talk Back/Q&A. The play is a benefit for SL24 Unlocke the Light, a foundation dedicated to empowering young people by providing them with tools, education, and resources needed to understand mental health.
