Longwood Players Announce A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY & Auditions for NEXT TO NORMAL

Tickets are now on sale for Longwood Players' A Bright Room Called Day, their first full-length production in the black box at Chelsea Theatre Works, and auditions have been announced for their spring musical, Next to Normal. Read on for information about Longwood's fall calendar of events.

A Bright Room Called Day by Tony Kushner

Longwood's first full-length show in Chelsea is Tony Kushner's searing A Bright Room Called Day - Kushner's exploration of what happens to artists and friends as democracy fails. According to Sid Smith of the Chicago Tribune, A Bright Room Called Day is "is unabashedly political, thought-provoking, a little scary, and frequently a good deal of theatrical fun."

Artistic Director Kaitlyn Chantry's vision for A Bright Room Called Day is unlike any previous Longwood production, with the set and seating scattered throughout the theater, and even offering a limited number of seats on stage.

A Bright Room Called Day features Brooke Casanova, Holly Newman, Evelyn Holley, Anthony Mullin, Andy Moore, Taylor Hilliard, Nicole Ventura, Nicole Frattaroli, Ruth Johnson, and Chad Gobert.
Join us for this unique theatrical event!
