Vida, a NYC high school teacher and Lena, a once-successful writer, are two sisters who couldn’t be more different. When a delivery of boxes from their recently deceased father arrives they must reconnect and re-examine their complicated history. A drama infused with comedy that explores how we let go of yesterday so we can find a tomorrow. 10 Things to Do Before I Die was commissioned through the Time Warner Commissioning Program at Second Stage Theatre.

WILDFLOWER

A woman and her troubled son look to escape their past in Crested Butte, a small town with its own share of secrets. They encounter a curious girl, a forest ranger, and an ex-drag queen. The five collide in a summer of botany and sexual awakening. This comic drama explores the discovery of desire and its unexpected consequences.
NOW ON BROADWAY! Subscription available through May 17 only!
NEXT TO NORMAL
Music by Tom Kitt
Book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey
Musical Staging by Brian Yorkey
Directed by Michael Greif
In his review of the Arena Stage production, Peter Marks of The Washington Post, wrote, "NEXT TO NORMAL is a moving, blisteringly honest, and inordinately powerful new musical, sung with a wallop by a six-member cast that includes the astonishing Alice Ripley, and dexterously directed by Michael Greif. Writers Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey have stocked the musical with beautiful songs that get to the heart of the story- and simply get to the heart."
