Whorl Inside a Loop's Sherie Rene Scott Will Remain in Prison an Extra Week Off-Broadway

Sherie Rene Scott will remain behind bars a little longer! The world premiere of Whorl Inside a Loop, headlined by the Tony nominee, has extended through September 27. Directed by Michael Mayer and Dick Scanlan, and written by Scanlan and Scott, the production is playing off-Broadway at Second Stage’s Tony Kiser Theatre.

In Whorl Inside a Loop, a well-regarded actress agrees to teach six inmates how to tell their stories behind the bars of a men’s maximum-security prison. Sharing intimate and sometimes hilarious details of their former lives (while portraying characters of varying age, gender and race), this unlikely group forms a bond—even as the actress’ life outside spins out of control. And when what happens in prison doesn't stay there, no one is sure whom to trust.

The cast also includes Derrick Baskin as Sunnyside, Nicholas Christopher as Rick, Chris Myers as Jeffrey, Ryan Quinn as Source, Daniel J. Watts as Flex and Donald Webber Jr. as Bey.
