Following an acclaimed sleeper-hit run last Spring at Bowery Palace, MEET ME AT THE END OF THE WORLD (formerly Silver Manhattan), the 2026 Drama Desk-nominated rock musical that “succeeds on every level” (Variety) returns to share the rise, fall, and rise again of beloved singer-songwriter Jesse Malin. A true New York original and your favorite songwriter’s favorite songwriter, Malin built a remarkable career, from CBGB at 12 years old to Madison Square Garden and stages around the world, collaborating with Bruce Springsteen, Lucinda Williams, Green Day, and more. Then, in 2023, everything changed when Malin suffered a rare and unexpected spinal stroke that left him paralyzed from the waist down. When you’ve been to the top, the bottom hits hard. MEET ME AT THE END OF THE WORLD is a raw, funny, moving, and ultimately inspiring story of a life fully lived.
