This Is How It Goes Extends at the Public Theater Through April 24

The Public Theater has extended its production of Neil LaBute's This Is How It Goes. Starring Amanda Peet, Ben Stiller, and Jeffrey Wright, the show will now play at the Anspacher Theater through April 24.

This Is How It Goes is a fierce drama of manipulation, exploitation, infidelity, and passion. Peet and Wright play a married couple whose lives are interrupted by an old acquaintance Stiller, who may or may not be what he seems.

The drama, directed by George C. Wolfe, opened on March 27 to mixed reviews. In his Broadway.com Review of the play, Eric Grode wrote: "The well-crafted but limited nihilism of [LaBute's] earlier works has given way to a more nuanced, deeply considered grasp of why people hurt one another and themselves."
