Our 2008 Season ARTLong-standing friendships are brought to the edge of destruction when Serge buys a very expensive new painting. Best friend Marc tells Serge his purchase is ridiculous and neutral buddy Ivan is brought into the fray. Lines are drawn and soon all three square off. The criticism of the art soon erodes to criticism of character and soon all things become fair play. SEDITION The same creative team that brought you The Good German returns to stage a striking new historical, yet timely drama about war, patriotism and courage. Based on a true story, Sedition makes its New York premiere at the Shadowland and will be a co-production with Playwrights' Theatre of New Jersey. BLACK COMEDY One of the funniest British farces of all time, Black Comedy was nominated for a Tony for Best Play. A young artist has "borrowed" his absent neighbor's fancy furniture in order to impress a big art dealer and his potential future father-in-law on a very special night. But then the lights go out and things get very messy when the neighbor arrives home early…and in the dark. GLORIOUS Known as the "first lady of the sliding scale", Florence Foster Jenkins (1868-1944) was a gregarious sociallite who became a must-see performer in the 1940's. The appalling becomes appealing in Glorious, the new Olivier-nominated comedy that chronicles her rise to the pinnacle of a sold-out Carnegie Hall. This is the true story of "the worst singer in the world"! RISING WATER A touching and timely drama chronicling a day during Hurricane Katrina, this searing new play (and Pulitzer nominee) is from New Orleans playwright John Biguenet. Funny, poignant and engaging, this NY premiere closes the Shadowland season. |
