Photos: Inside Opening Night of PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK
Picnic at Hanging Rock will run through January 17, 2026.
Now running at Greenwich House Theatre is PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK, the new rock musical. Adapted from Joan Lindsay’s novel, with book and lyrics by Hilary Bell and music and arrangements by Greta Gertler Gold, the production is directed by Portia Krieger and is playing a strictly limited engagement in New York. Check out photos from opening night here!
Set on Valentine’s Day in 1900, PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK follows a group of teenage schoolgirls who vanish during an outing to the mysterious Hanging Rock. First brought to global attention through Peter Weir’s film adaptation, the musical reimagines the story through a female-centered lens and incorporates a First Nations Australian perspective, examining themes of innocence, disappearance, and the forces that shape destiny.
The cast includes Tatianna Córdoba, Erin Davie, Sarah Ellis, Carly Gendell, Gillian Han, Alexandra Humphreys, Bradley Lewis, Kate Louissant, Marina Pires, Maddie Robert, Brandon Keith Rogers, Reese Sebastian Diaz, Lizzy Tucker, Kaye Tuckerman, Sarah Walsh, and Jordan White.
The creative team features choreography by Mayte Natalio, scenic design by Daniel Zimmerman, costume design by Ásta Bennie Hostetter, lighting design by Barbara Samuels, and sound design by Nick Kourtides. Orchestrations are by Greta Gertler Gold, Adam Gold, and Rob Jost, with Anessa Marie Scolpini serving as music director and conductor. The production is produced by Irma Theatricals.
