Season Announcement: 2023-24
Next year's theatrical season will open with Everybody by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins. A modern riff on the 15th century morality play Everyman, the play follows Everybody (chosen randomly from amongst the cast by lottery at each performance) as they travel down the path toward life's greatest mystery, encountering Friendship, Kinship, Stuff, Beauty, and Love along the way.
The annual high school musical will be Mean Girls (book by Tina Fey, music by Jeff Richmond, lyrics by Nell Benjamin), a ferociously funny musical based on the hit film. Cady Heron tries to find where she belongs while experiencing the wild and vicious ways of her new suburban high school. When Cady and her friends devise revenge on The Plastics, a trio of frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a Queen Bee without getting stung.
