SUMMARY:Begin Again
DESCRIPTION:When Gretta\, a gifted but heartbroken songwriter\, crosses paths with Dan\, a record producer on the brink of burnout\, their chance encounter sparks an unexpected collaboration that transforms them both. Begin Again features an original score by Grammy Award-winning pop-rock band Train (“Drops of Jupiter\,” “Hey\, Soul Sister”)\, direction by Lorin Latarro (Waitress\, Chess)\, and is inspired by the Academy Award–nominated film written and directed by John Carney (Once). Set against the exhilarating backdrop of New York City\, Begin Again is a world premiere musical about rediscovering passion\, purpose\, and the courage to start over.

SUMMARY:A Black-billed Cuckoo
DESCRIPTION:Sep 15 – Oct 11 | Mandell Weiss Forum \nBy Mat Smart \nDirected by Shelley Butler \n\n\nMost performances are full but some tickets are released daily. Check back here\, join our email list to be notified and follow us on Instagram where we post ticket releases on our Stories.\n“Packed with humor… delightful\, funny and surprising. A gentle and rewarding play about friendship\, found family and starting over.” San Diego Union-Tribune \nThe elusive black-billed cuckoo is notoriously difficult to find\, even if you know what you’re looking for — and that’s precisely the bird Ruth has been looking for these past few years. Over 24 hours in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park\, a close-knit birding group is turned upside down when some of its members glimpse this rare bird and others don’t. \nAward-winning playwright Mat Smart — known for his “intricate\, delightful comic drama” storytelling (The New York Times) — introduces us to a fascinating community of people who revel in the idea that any given day might bring something they’ve never seen before. Director Shelley Butler has worked extensively on new plays\, creating “dynamic\, charming\, and laugh-filled” productions (BroadwayWorld).
