World Premiere
In September 2016 The Black Crook – often considered to be the first piece of musical theatre that conforms to the modern notion of a "book musical" – celebrates its 150th anniversary, marking the rumored birth of the American Musical.
From the rubble of the Civil War, The Black Crook emerged taking an entire country by storm; an unprecedented commercial juggernaut that contributed, whether first musical or no, to a popular melting-pot entertainment that blended art both high and low. The Black Crook is an origin story for the spectacle that is America, and 150 years after the fact, it will be exhumed once again.
Writer: Charles M. Barras
Director: Joshua William Gelb
Artistic Producer: Moe Yousuf
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
WEDNESDAY thru MONDAY @ 7 PM
