Songs for A New World

Music and Lyrics by Jason Robert Brown
Directed by Linda Pauli & Scott Sowinski
Music Direction by Jeff Otto

This contemporary song cycle weaves characters and history together, illuminating the timelessness of self-discovery.

It's about one moment. It's about hitting the wall and having to make a choice... or take a stand... or turn around and go back. These are the stories and characters of today, the Songs for a New World. The first musical from Tony Award winner, Jason Robert Brown (Parade, Bridges of Madison County), this moving collection of powerful songs examines life, love and the choices that we make.

Brown transports his audience from the deck of a 1492 Spanish sailing ship to a ledge, 57 stories above Fifth Avenue, to meet a startling array of characters that range from a young man who has determined that basketball is his ticket out of the ghetto to a woman whose dream of marrying rich nabs her the man of her dreams... and a soulless marriage.

 

Performances: March 27 - April 6, 2025

This show is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

Happy Birthday Wanda June

a satirical play by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

Directed by Bob Cooley

A woman with a little boy has two suitors: a doctor and a vacuum cleaner salesman. Her husband, a famous big-game hunter and adventurer, disappeared years ago in the Amazon. She is about to be declared a widow when he walks in, khaki breeches, puttees, and all, together with the pilot with whom he crashed in the Amazon valley. It happens to be his birthday, an event which all those present had decided to celebrate and for which they had just purchased a cake on the spur of the moment. The cake had been intended for somebody named Wanda June, who apparently never got to celebrate at all. The adventurer turns out to be a wild champion of havoc who alienates friends and demolishes violins. He fails in his effort to get his son to shoot him – the boy doesn’t believe in that kind of old-fashioned heroism – and then in his own effort to shoot himself. He is a social flop out.

 

Performances: June 6 - 22, 2025

Approximate run time: 90 minutes plus 15 intermission

Target Audience: Adult, Senior, Teen.  The show deals with adult themes that may not be appropriate for all audiences.
