AUBERGINE
Sept 20 – Oct 20, 2019
Contemporary Drama
Boss Thrust Stage
By Julia Cho
Directed by Flordelino Lagundino
A son cooks a meal for his dying father to say everything that his words can’t. Lyrical, humorous and full of love, this is a story of an intergenerational Korean family struggling to relate across emotional, linguistic and cultural divides. When words fail, a home-cooked meal transcends differences and brings us together.
THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW
Sept 27 – Nov 2, 2019
Musical
Proscenium Stage
By Richard O’Brien (music, lyrics and book)
Directed by Ilana Ransom Toeplitz
Let’s do the Time Warp again! Enter a kitschy, campy, sci-fi fantasy with Brad and Janet as they encounter Dr. Frank ’N’ Furter, a vamping, bisexual transvestite from another planet, backed by his band of singing and dancing Phantoms. Mixing rock ‘n’ roll with crazy dance numbers, sex, glitter and corsets, this is a party that’s sure to make you shiver with antici–pation!
PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
Nov 15 – Dec 22, 2019
Classic Reimagined
Proscenium Stage
By Kate Hamill, adapted from Jane Austen
Directed by Lisa Channer
In Regency England, love is a serious game and the Bennet sisters are playing for keeps. The outspoken Lizzy is determined never to marry, but can she resist love, especially when the amusing but mildly aggravating Mr. Darcy keeps popping up at every turn? Bold, timely, with a few dance breaks thrown in, this is Jane Austen for today.
EVITA
Jan 17 – Mar 1, 2020
Musical
Proscenium Stage
By Tim Rice (book and lyrics) and Andrew Lloyd Webber (music)
Directed by Mark Valdez
Denise Prosek, Musical Director
This powerful retelling of the award-winning rags-to-riches musical based on Eva Peron, the First Lady of Argentina, is a story of populism and politics. Evita addresses the timely question of what it takes to make a name for yourself in society today. Winner of seven Tonys including Best Musical and Best Original Score, with “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina.”
UN (the completely true story of the rise of Kim Jong Un)
Feb 7 – Mar 1, 2020
Biodrama | World Premiere
Boss Thrust Stage
By John Kim
Directed by Flordelino Lagundino
A hilarious, irreverent, and brutal take on the rise to power of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, chronicling his life as a teen who worships Michael Jordan to his murderous ascent to become Supreme Leader.
The script looks at the often insane ways in which power is given and taken, and how the western world views power in countries that do not share its Eurocentric origins.
—Flordelino Lagundino

Musical
Proscenium Stage
By Quiara Alegría Hudes (book and lyrics) and Erin McKeown (music and lyrics)

A powerful new musical by Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner Quiara Alegría Hudes (Water by the Spoonful, In The Heights)
HOLMES AND WATSON

Mystery
Proscenium Stage
By Jeffrey Hatcher
Directed by Michael Evan Haney
Sherlock Holmes is dead, or is he? Dr. Watson receives a telegram from a mental asylum: three patients are claiming to be Sherlock Holmes. Did the world’s greatest sleuth fake his own death? Who’s the real detective and who are the impostors? Tight, clever and full of suspense, this is Jeffrey Hatcher (Sherlock Holmes and the Ice Palace Murders, Mr. Holmes) at his best.
THE REVOLUTIONISTS
Jun 19 – Jul 19, 2020
Comedy
Boss Thrust Stage
By Lauren Gunderson
Directed by Madeline Sayet
Four badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, rebellious comedy set during the French Revolution. An assassin, a spy, a playwright, and, of course, Marie Antoinette— hang out, plot murder, find friendship, and try to beat back extremist insanity. By turns drolly funny and affectingly poignant, this comedic romp considers how we go about changing the world.
