Gallery Players will present the final production in its 52nd season, SPRING AWAKENING; book and lyrics by Steven Sater; music by Duncan Sheik; based on the 1891 German play by Frank Wedekind. SPRING AWAKENING explores the journey from adolescence to adulthood with a poignancy and passion that is illuminating and unforgettable. The landmark musical is an electrifying fusion of morality, sexuality, and rock and roll. Complete with the extensive use of video projections, intensive stage lighting, and a new sound system, Gallery's main stage has transformed from a traditional theater into a concert venue in director Nick Brennan's vision of the musical as a rock concert.
The Black Box New Play Festival is the Gallery Players' signature festival of new works by both new and established playwrights. Now in its 22nd year, the festival will premiere 11 new plays over the course of three weekends. The festival opens Thursday, January 10 and runs through January 27, with a new collection of plays presented each week. Performances are Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30PM, and Sundays at 3PM. There will be a talk back with the playwrights directly after the Sunday matinees.
