MELANCHOLY PLAY: a chamber musical
Written by Sarah Ruhl and Todd Almond
Directed and Music Directed by Justin P. Cowan

Tilly is a bank teller, and she's depressed. She's so beautifully, alluringly melancholic that everyone she meets falls in love with her, including her therapist, her hairdresser and her tailor. But what happens when she stops being so sad? In two lyrical, poetic parts, Melancholy Play: a chamber musical offers a whimsical take on the human quest for love and connection. This Blackbox musical runs from October 29th through November 7th.Please note that audience members must be masked at all times inside the Visual and Performing Arts Center without exception.
