Berkshire Theatre Group Presents
The Berkeley Repertory Theatre Production of
Out of Character
After a powerful developmental debut at Berkshire Theatre Group’s Festival of New Jewish Plays last summer, Out of Character returns for a fully realized production at The Unicorn Theatre. Written and performed by Tony Award winner Ari’el Stachel, this deeply personal and profoundly moving solo play takes audiences on an intimate journey through identity, mental health and self-acceptance. Directed by Tony Taccone, renowned for commissioning Angels in America alongside Oskar Eustis during his tenure as artistic director of Eureka Theatre in San Francisco, this production carries a creative vision that is as innovative as it is compelling.
“A compelling exploration of identity and self-acceptance.” –Peter Marks, The Washington Post
Hailed as a “riveting and deeply personal performance,” Out of Character is as funny as it is deeply affecting. Through storytelling that is both vulnerable and uplifting, Stachel brings audiences along on a journey of discovery that is uniquely his yet universally relatable. As Peter Marks of The Washington Post noted, “Stachel’s performance is both heartfelt and humorous, offering a nuanced portrayal of his personal journey.” This production is not to be missed—an unforgettable night of theatre that challenges, inspires and ultimately celebrates the beauty of embracing who we are.
Recommended for ages 12 and up.
