Nathan Lane, Ira Glass to Participate in Sleepwalk With Me Talkback Series

Nathan Lane and Ira Glass will be the first two guests for “Awkward 10 Minutes with Mike,” a new 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. Lane — a co-producer of Birbiglia’s show who will return to Broadway next year in Waiting for Godot — will appear Wednesday, December 3, followed by This American Life host Glass on Wednesday, December 10. A new guest will be featured each Wednesday.

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).
