Additional guests have been announced for “Awkward 10 Minutes with Mike,” a Wednesday night talkback series produced in conjunction with Mike Birbiglia’s solo show, Sleepwalk With Me, currently running at the Bleecker Street Theater.

Birbiglia will interview a new guest each week about a personal story that they’re uncomfortable about discussing in public. Actress and comedienne Janeane Garofalo will appear January 7, novelist and screenwriter Jonathan Ames will appear January 14, actor and comedian David Cross will appear January 21, and New Yorker contributor Andy Borowitz will appear January 28.

In Sleepwalk With Me, Birbiglia takes the audience on a hysterically funny and intensely personal journey through his struggles with sleepwalking and his reluctance to confront his fears of love, honesty and growing up. Seth Barrish directs, and the creative team also includes Beowulf Boritt (set), Jason Lyons (lighting) and Jim Corona and Jody Elff (sound).
