When it closes, the critically acclaimed drama will have played 80 performances and 21 previews.

Directed by Lori Adams, the open-ended run began previews Sept. 27. Several performances were canceled following power outages due to Hurricane Sandy.

The cast comprises Daniel Everidge, Celia Howard, Daniel Pearce, Jacey Powers and Julia Murney.

Falling is described as a new drama "about how 18-year-old Josh, who has autism, affects the lives of everyone around him. When a relative comes to visit, the entire family is thrown off their equilibrium, with everyone trying to balance what is best for the family and what is best for them."

The production has set design by John C. Stark, costume design by Tristan Raines, lighting design by Julie Mack and sound design by Raymond Schilke. Rick Sordelet serves as fight choreographer.
