Get Other tickets on New York Theatre Guide to see this special and unique one-person performance about one artist's search for belonging. Starring and written by Tony and Grammy award winner Ari’el Stachel, Other plays for a strictly limited run downtown at the Greenwich House Theatre, in a venue that matches this lovely show's intimacy.
Experience Other off Broadway, directed by former Berkeley Rep Artistic Director Tony Taccone and produced by LaChanze Productions. A poignant yet hilarious one-man show about Stachel's anxious search for selfhood, Other traces the artist from childhood reinventions to performing through chronic panic in front of thousands. All the while, he navigates identity, self-acceptance, and the pursuit of his dreams with hilarity and heart, offering audiences a performance that is as raw as it is entertaining.
“Ari’el’s brave, funny and vulnerable retelling of his life through this performance blows me away,” said producer LaChanze in a statement. “It's so relevant and identifiable for anyone who has ever been othered and the anxiety that can be caused by living in that truth. It's important to me as a producer that the stories we tell reflect everyday members of society and explore how we are more alike than different- and this play does just that.”
In regional performances across the country, critics have raved about this performance. “Stachel benefits from his brio as a performer, particularly his musical-theater skills; he's able to wordlessly communicate — or punctuate — in a way and on a level not many solo performers can achieve," The Boston Globe wrote.
The Washington Post added that the play “probes profound questions of identity, integrity, cultural appropriation, and what it means to be American," calling Stachel "a virtuosic impersonator with a particular genius for voices."
