Full guide →When to go. Head straight out at curtain call. Two-show days are the worst bet at both performances — the cast rests through the matinee and is spent by the evening. A Sunday matinee is the best single bet, because it is a one-show day. In bad weather the barricades sometimes never go up at all.
Who comes out. Anywhere from nobody to most of the cast. Nobody can tell you in advance which three — not us, not the theatre. Treat any list that claims otherwise with suspicion.
What to bring. Tonight’s Playbill and a fine-tip Sharpie, held open to the page you want signed. Ask before you photograph anyone, and keep the pavement clear — it is a working door, not a red carpet.
Where to Buy Tickets
The Lowdown
One winter night in Asheville, North Carolina. One couple, five years in, staring down what might be the last night of the whole thing. One building superintendent who keeps showing up. And one voice-activated home assistant named Nora who will not stop being helpful. That is Across a Wicked Weed, a new play getting its world premiere at AMT Theater.
Idan is 20 and nostalgic about everything. Leia is 19 and keeps her guard all the way up. Over one long night they pick through what they built and whether it is worth saving, with Mr. Charles the super and Nora, voiced by Noa Tesler, along for the ride. The story is inspired by true events and then spun into fiction.
Adir Lev Mann wrote it and also plays Idan. Maya Mills directs.
The run is short and scattered: performances start October 28, 2026, with more on November 1, 3, 7, 11 and 15 at AMT Theater on West 45th Street. Pick your night early, because there are only a few of them.
