Second Stage Theater has announced a one-week extension of its New York premiere production of Tracy Letts's Mary Page Marlowe. It will now run through Sunday, August 19.

Blair Brown, Emma Geer, Mia Sinclair Jenness, Tatiana Maslany, Kellie Overbey, and Susan Pourfar play the title character at different points in her life. The rest of the cast includes David Aaron Baker, Kayli Carter, Audrey Corsa, Marcia DeBonis, Nick Dillenburg, Ryan Foust, Tess Frazer, Grace Gummer, Brian Kerwin, Maria Elena Ramirez, Elliot Villar, and Gary Wilmes.

The production features scenic design by Laura Jellinek, costume design by Kaye Voyce, lighting design by Tyler Micoleau, and sound design by Brandon Wolcott.

Mary Page Marlowe is described as follows: "If you looked back on eleven moments from your life, would you recognize yourself, or would you see a stranger? Mary Page Marlowe is a seemingly ordinary accountant from Ohio who has experienced pain and joy, success and failure. In this sweeping but intimate play, Tracy Letts gives us a haunting portrait of a complex woman, demonstrating how a series of forgotten moments can add up to one memorable life."
