The production is directed by Drama Desk nominee Lucie Tiberghien, a recipient of the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters). The production features just three actors taking on more than 10 characters, accompanied by live original cello music from Drama Desk-nominated composer Jonathan Moore.
MIP is 'founded on the belief that access to the arts benefits all, individually and collectively.' In keeping with that mission, there is no cost for tickets, making its productions accessible to all.
Performances run from September 6-27.
