Atlas at Liberty at The Tank

This a world-premiere reading of the untold story of musician Nadia Boulanger, who at age five, swore to her elderly father she would forfeit her childhood to provide for her mother and sister. This she did. The play chronicles her young and transgressive years stirring up trouble in establishing herself as a composer before realizing her terminally ill sister Lili was the greater composer. Following Lili's passing, Nadia became the great music teacher of the twentieth century.
