2. The Trouble with Doug

The Trouble with Doug Book and Music by Will Aronson Book and Lyrics by Daniel Maté (winner of the The Kleban Prize for Musical Theatre, most promising lyricist) Executive Producer: Chuck Halberg, Stuart and Shelby A contemporary re-imagining of Kafka’s Metamorphosis, “The Trouble With Doug” is a hilarious and moving new musical about a healthy young man who transforms inexplicably into a giant talking slug. Thrust together awkwardly under the same roof, Doug, his family, and his fiancée all struggle to understand and respond to this strangest of crises. “Don’t come to this remarkable and heartfelt new show expecting either Kafkaesque alienation and angst or, as I was fearing, snarky postmodern spoof. The Trouble with Doug is an original, and also rather daring in post-Osage County theatre in its focus on a family of loving, smart people who genuinely care about each other.
