Dare to Defy Productions to Present Andrew Lippa's THE WILD PARTY
Dare to Defy Productions will be bringing the stunning musical based on Joseph Moncure March's popular 1928 epic poem to Dayton- set for a limited 6 performance run at the Mathile Theatre, in the Schuster Center, April 1st - April 9th, 2016.
A steamy prohibition tale steamrolling and roaring its way across the stage, Andrew Lippa's Wild Party was an off-Broadway gem that garnered an array of industry accolades, including Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, & Obie awards. Based on Joseph Moncure March's 1928 narrative poem of the same name, this darkly brilliant show features one of the most exciting, pulse-racing scores ever written.
Lovers Queenie and Burrs decide to throw the party to end all parties in their Manhattan apartment. After the colorful arrival of a slew of guests living life on the edge, Queenie's wandering eyes land on a striking man named Black. As the decadence is reaching a climax, so is Burrs' jealousy which erupts and sends him ...into a violent rage. Gun in hand and inhibitions abandoned Burrs turns on Queenie and Black. The gun gets fired, but who's been shot?Music Direction by Lorri Topping
