Scenes and Background from KENREX NYC Production

Facebook Discussion

  1. Jack Holden won Best Actor in London — then moved KENREX to Christopher Street so New Yorkers could ask: “Thirty characters? Which one do we boo first?”

  2. London applauds him for playing 30 suspects; New York applauds him for playing 30 ways to dodge the moving truck.

  3. KENREX hits the Lucille Lortel — Jack calls it method acting: living in 30 different rent-controlled apartments in one week.

  4. Critics in London: “A tour de force.” New Yorkers: “Great show — but can he find parking on Christopher Street for 30 personalities?”

  5. He won Best Actor, then moved the show across the Atlantic. That’s commitment — and a generous luggage fee.

  6. Jack: “I play 30 characters.” Lucille Lortel: “We have seating for 299.” Audience: “Phew, each character only gets ten tickets?”

  7. After the London awards, Jack’s moving the play to NYC — finally a city tough enough to heckle 30 different suspects.

  8. The play’s run in New York is listed as “limited.” That’s because even Jack needs a break from 30 dinner orders.

  9. London critics said his portrayal was unforgettable. New Yorkers are already arguing in the lobby over who got the one-liner first — all 30 of them.

  10. Jack’s tour plan: win an award, cross the pond, perform 30 roles. Next step — Broadway, where he’ll add “elevator operator” to the cast to save time.

  11. Fresh off the Best Actor win, Jack moved KENREX to NYC — because nothing says celebration like unpacking 30 wardrobes in a week.

  12. London: “He vanishes into each role.” NYC: “Great — now can he vanish into a subway car without paying?”

  13. Thirty characters, one actor — critics call it ambitious; stagehands call it a logistics nightmare.

  14. Jack’s schedule now: rehearse, perform, collect awards, cross the Atlantic, play thirty people — all before brunch.

  15. Lucille Lortel announced a new policy: one coat check per character.

  16. He won Best Actor — the union asked if he’s accepting 30 paychecks or just one.

  17. New Yorkers bracing for KENREX: “We already argue about everything here — now we get 30 opening-night opinions for free.”

  18. Jack’s strategy: win in London, open in NYC, confuse audiences everywhere with 30 different accents.

  19. The program lists 30 characters; the lobby lists 30 different excuses for arriving late.

  20. Critics: “His transitions are seamless.” Audience: “We just want to know who to heckle.”

  21. Moving the show to Christopher Street — because nothing amplifies a small-town murder like big-city sidewalk commentary.

  22. After playing 30 suspects, Jack applied to rent a one-bedroom — landlord: “Which one of you will sign the lease?”

  23. His acceptance speech: “Thank you.” Then he turned and thanked the other 29 people onstage.

  24. Opening night Q&A is going to be wild: 30 personalities, 1 microphone, one moderator who immediately regrets their career choices.

  25. London gave him a trophy; New York gave him a subway pass — one per character, please.
