Closing the Distance News

Actor Jason Alexander talks about Seinfeld, life in quarantine, his longstanding marriage and his new podcast "Closing the Distance" available on Apple podcasts.

Jason Alexander, Tony Danza, William Hurt, Kelli O'Hara, and Kathleen Turner will star in the new dramatic podcast series "Closing the Distance" - a series of ten short pieces that explore the sudden and seemingly uncrossable distance between people caused by the societal issues of our current times: social-distancing, quarantine and isolation.

During these grim days of empty stages and social cages, theater groups are scrambling to generate online content to appease their fans. We’ve witnessed an explosion of videos of Broadway shows, podcasts, mini-concerts, variety programs, and more, many doubling as benefits for performers laid low by the COVID crisis.

Closing the Distance will be made up of 10 short audio dramas created in response to the public health crisis.
