Seussical: The Musical
By Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty
April 22nd - April 26th
Seussical weaves together the wild and whimsical world of Dr. Seuss as it has never been seen before. When chaos erupts in the Jungle of Nool, it will take The Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz and a gaggle of characters to bring harmony back to their world. The Tony Award-winning team of Ahrens and Flaherty has created an imaginative score that includes pop, gospel, blues and R & B.
FREE STUDENT PERFORMANCES: Thursday, April 24th @ 8PM and Friday, April 25th @ 11AM. Just show your CANEID at the Box Office -- no reservations required!
New Box New Musicals
March 25th - 29th
As part of the Grand Opening of our new Black Box Theatre, the Department of Theatre Arts will be presenting five new musicals that are written and developed by students of the Tisch School of the Arts, Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program at New York University. This new creative partnership with NYU will be under the direction and musical direction of NDavid Williams. Funny, poignant, and thought provoking (often the same time) these twenty-minute musicals are tiny jewels of musical storytelling.
Almost, Maine
By: John Cariani
February 21st - March 1st
Welcome to Almost, Maine, a place that’s so far north, it’s almost not in the United States. It’s almost in Canada. And it’s not quite a town, because its residents never got around to getting organized. So it almost doesn’t exist. One cold, clear, winter night, as the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, the residents of Almost, Maine, find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend—almost—in this delightful midwinter night’s dream.
