The show, which chronicles Mike’s struggles with sleepwalking and the effects that has had on his romantic relationship, was previewed to Nashville at Zanies when Mike was preparing for his run at the Bleeker Street Theater in New York City. More recent bookings at Zanies have been postponed as “Sleepwalk”s run was extended, but fret not! Mr. Birbiglia just touched base with N’Sup to let us know he’s coming back soon-ish:
