Sing Sing Cast Reunites for Off-Broadway Performance

The original cast of Sing Sing will reunite for a live performance of the play Breakin' the Mummy's Code on February 3 at the New York Theatre Workshop, following its depiction in the A24 film Sing Sing. Hosted by J. Smith-Cameron, the event will feature a post-show Q&A with the cast and director Brent Buell, emphasizing the transformative impact of the Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA) program on the lives of formerly incarcerated actors. The play, originally staged in 2005 at Sing Sing Correctional Facility, showcases the power of creativity in rehabilitation, with many cast members reprising their roles from the film. Notably, the film has garnered several accolades including a Golden Globe nomination for Colman Domingo, who portrays a man wrongfully imprisoned. This one-night-only event is presented by A24 in collaboration with The Just Trust and RTA, highlighting the resilience and artistic expression of its participants. The revival marks a significant moment for both the actors and the broader creative community, as it aims to captivate audiences once again with its unique narrative.
