Alice By Heart
Production Information:
Directed by Carin Heidelbach
Synopsis: This remarkably creative musical incredibly synthesizes a World War II London bomb shelter with Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland to create a beautiful story of escapism, first love, and loss. The team behind Spring Awakening, Duncan Sheik (music) and Steven Sater (lyrics and book), return in this theatrically fantastical piece. Sater says, “Alice by Heart… is about the power of books to help us through the hardest times—to help us restore to our innermost selves what has been lost and found and lost again.” New York Stage Review described the show as "a darkly whimsical, utterly transporting musical that recalls [Spring] Awakening both in its general focus - on anxious, pining youths who must pay the price for their elders' folly - and the lush, often melancholy but exhilarating beauty of its score.”

The Country Wife
Production Information:
Directed by Jack Souza
Synopsis:
A bawdy comedy of manners! The Country Wife by William Wycherly was huge hit in 1671 and is still the quintessential Restoration Comedy. An English rogue attempts to cuckold the rich aristocrats and the wives are all on board! Big wigs and big farce will rule in a play where, even after hundreds of years, sticking it to billionaires never goes out of style!
I’m extremely excited for this season! I think it shows all the eclectic ways theatre can entertain and intellectually excite! For performers and technicians it covers a broad range of styles. And there’s incredibly diverse creative opportunities in acting, design, musical theatre and playwriting. Onward and Upward!
