'Metal Soul Mercy' returns to the Slipper Room for an encore performance

After a sold-out premiere in June, the original play "Metal Soul Mercy" returns to the Slipper Room on the Lower East Side for an encore performance on Wednesday, July 22. 

Written by Maci Zakarin and co-directed by Zakarin and Hana Lauer, the hourlong production follows four showgirls whose lives have unfolded entirely onstage. Their world is upended when a mysterious visitor forces them to question who they are beyond the spotlight. 

The performance blends theater, dance and camp while exploring themes of identity, friendship, community and performance. 

The cast features Mariama Condé, Doğa Ozbilun, Hana Lauer, Maci Zakarin and He-Myong Woo, with choreography by Kalie-Ann Nassoura. 

The show starts at 8 p.m. (doors at 7:30 p.m.) at the Slipper Room, 167 Orchard St. Tickets are available here
