New York, NY (April 27, 2026) – Last evening, the two-time Olivier Award-winning critically acclaimed thriller KENREX had its American premiere at the Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street). Notable VIPs including Jesse Eisenberg, Richard Kind, Jane Krakowski, Stephen Kunken, David Rockwell, Stephen Schwartz, and Constance Wu joined in the celebration with Olivier Award winner Jack Holden (co-writer and performer), Ed Stambollouian (co-writer and director), and John Patrick Elliott (onstage musician/composer/music supervisor).

Tickets are available for KENREX’s limited 11-week run at kenrextheplay.com, www.Lortel.org, and in-person at The Lucille Lortel Theatre Box Office (121 Christopher Street).
Direct from three acclaimed, sold-out runs across London – at the Southwark Playhouse Borough, Sheffield Theatre, and, most recently, The Other Palace – KENREX is the blistering true-crime thriller about the thin line between justice served and justice taken. Jack Holden delivers “an astonishing performance” (The Guardian), slipping in and out of 35 characters, all set against a high-octane, searing score.
KENREX includes set and costume design by Anisha Fields, lighting and video design by Joshua Pharo, sound design by Giles Thomas, with movement direction by Sarah Golding. Casting is by Taylor Williams, CSA.
KENREX Music from the Play, an album by John Patrick Elliott via Carbon Moon Records, is now available to stream. Experience to the album here.
This production of KENREX is produced by Aria Entertainment, Seaview, and TRW Production
