"Burn This" is a powerful drama written by Lanford Wilson that premiered in 1987. The story unfolds in the bohemian art world of downtown New York City in the 1980s. It centers around Anna, a dancer grappling with grief after the death of a close friend, and Pale, a volatile restaurant owner with a hidden past. Their chance encounter ignites a passionate and intense connection, laced with raw emotions and unspoken desires. The play explores themes of loss, love, and the complexities of human relationships.

"Burn This" garnered critical praise for its raw and honest portrayal of human connection. The play delves into the characters' vulnerabilities and the challenges they face, creating a captivating and emotionally charged experience for audiences.

Short North Stage Frequently Asked Questions FAQ

Short North Stage is a professional theater company dedicated to bringing first-class live performance to the Short North Arts District. Residing in a distinctive performing arts venue, the historic Garden Theater, Short North Stage hosts and produces performances weekly, ranging from Broadway classics and edgy off-Broadway musicals, comedies and dramas to cabarets, dance and everything in between. With three performance venues within the Garden Theater, including the original main auditorium, the intimate Green Room, and Ethel's Stage Left Lounge, each show brings a truly unique experience. Our goal is to grow into a regional, and eventually, national showcase of music-driven works – celebrating familiar, reinventing less well-known, and nurturing new works. With the dynamics of the Short North moving uptown and The Ohio State University sphere of influence spreading south, the blocks bridging the two districts are ripe for revitalization. Short North Stage is helping lead the metamorphosis.

Short North Stage is at 1187 N High St, Columbus, OH.
