Chatham Players presents "Any Night" by Daniel Arnold & Medina Han

originally published: 12/02/2025


(CHATHAM, NJ) -- Chatham Players presents Any Night by Daniel Arnold & Medina Han weekends from January 23 to February 1, 2026. The writers/performers of the international hit Tuesdays & Sundays are back with a contemporary Hitchcockian thriller.

When Anna, a troubled modern dancer struggling with the death of her mother, moves into a new basement apartment for solace and solitude, she finds herself drawn into a tender relationship with Patrick, the helpful young man living above her. But why is she suffering violent behavior in her sleep?

As her night terrors and sleepwalking intensify, both she and Patrick are sent down a spiral of fear and are soon caught in fracturing timelines—from a night spent observed in a sleep clinic to a violent dream-like accident. Anna must sort reality from dream and past from present and future, or she may never wake up. 

Part romance, part mystery, Any Night is a suspenseful and mind-bending puzzle exploring the thin line between trust and fear and the immeasurable power of the subconscious.

Performances take place Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm; Sunday matinees at 3:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online. The Chatham Playhouse is located at 23 North Passaic Avenue in Chatham, New Jersey.
