TimeLine Announces 2013-14 Season
TimeLine Theatre Company, dedicated to presenting plays inspired by history that connect to today's social and political issues, announces its four-play 2013-14 season: Lorraine Hansberry's classic drama set in Chicago A RAISIN IN THE SUN, directed by Ron OJ Parson; Larry Kramer's Tony Award-winning Broadway play THE NORMAL HEART, directed by TimeLine Associate Artistic Director Nick Bowling; a third play to be announced; and the Chicago premiere of the musical JUNO, with book by Joseph Stein, music and lyrics by Marc Blitzstein, based on the classic Irish play Juno and the Paycock by Sean O'Casey, directed by Nick Bowling with musical direction by Doug Peck and Elizabeth Doran.
Again this year, one production of TimeLine's season will be presented at an alternate location to accommodate the company's more than 3,300 subscribers and growing audience. The Normal Heart - the second production of TimeLine's 17th season - will be presented at Stage 773, 1225 W. Belmont Avenue in Chicago, with the other three productions taking place at TimeLine Theatre's home just blocks away at 615 W. Wellington Avenue.
4-Admission FlexPass Subscriptions for TimeLine's 2013-14 season are now on sale, priced from $86 to $198. For more information and to purchase, call (773) 281-TIME (8463) or visit timelinetheatre.com.
"We are thrilled to further TimeLine's reputation for exploring timely and thought-provoking topics in our intimate setting," said Artistic Director PJ Powers. "Whether by tackling one of the most important plays ever written about Chicago, heralding the return of David Cromer to a local stage in one of the 20th Century's most provocative works, or introducing a gorgeous musical to this city for the first time, we will give our audience a fresh perspective on the enduring power and resonance of these classic stories."
