The Atlantic Theater Company production of Clare Lizzimore's Animal, starring Rebecca Hall, has extended its run through July 2. Gaye Taylor Upchurch directs the production at Atlantic Stage 2.

Joining Hall are Kristin Griffith, Greg Keller, David Pegram, Morgan Spector, and Fina Strazza.

The story is described as follows in a press release: "Rachel has it all: marriage, house, career. So why does she suddenly have this creeping feeling? Did she leave something behind? Or is there something in the walls…? Her husband thinks she needs time; her psychiatrist suggests positive thinking. But then the visions start. A darkly comic play about the underside of domesticity, the complexity of the brain in chaos, and the thin line between sinking and survival."

The production includes scenic design by Rachel Hauck, costume design by Sarah J. Holden, lighting design by Bradley King, sound design by Stowe Nelson, and original music by Daniel Kluger.
