The Longwood Players continues its 11th season celebrating women with a stunning musical based on the work of Federico Fellini. Nine has music & lyrics by Maury Yeston (book by Arthur Kopit). It is adapted from the Italian by Mario Fratti.
The show will be performed at the Cambridge Family YMCA theatre on April 24, 25, 30, May 1, and May 2 at 8 pm.

This spectacular winner of the 1982 Tony Award for Best Musical delighted Broadway theatergoers in a hit revival in 2003. Based on Fellini's classic film 8 1/2, Nine is the story of famous film director Guido Contini and his attempts to come up with a plot for his next film as he is pursued by hordes of beautiful women, all clamoring to be loved by him alone. Flashbacks reveal the substance of his life,which will become the material for his next film--a musical version of the Casanova story.
