#1 AFTERMATH
Opens Tuesday, September 15th, 2009
New York Theatre Workshop
New York Theatre Workshop, 79 East 4th Street
Written by Jessica Blank and Erik Jensen

Directed by Jessica Blank
Previews begin September 1st; Closes Sunday, October 4th, 2009

March 20, 2003. A date that the ordinary people of Iraq will never forget. A day that changed their lives forever. The day the Americans arrived in their country.

New York Theatre Workshop sent Jessica Blank and Erik Jensen, the award-winning creators of The Exonerated, to Jordan in June 2008 to find out firsthand what happened to the Iraqi civilians as a result of the events that began on that fateful day. They interviewed some 35 people-a cross-section of lives interrupted-who fled the chaos and violence that befell Iraqi society for the relative safety of Jordan. Following the visit to Amman, Jessica and Erik edited their conversations with the Iraqis and have turned them into an unforgettable theatrical event.

Memberships are available by calling the NYTW Box Office at (212) 460-5475, Tuesday through Saturday, 11:00am to 5:00pm, or online at www.nytw.org.


#2 BLIND LEMON BLUES
Opens September 15th, 2009
York Theatre Company and Documentary Arts with Central Track Productions
The Theatre at St. Peter's, 619 Lexington Avenue at 54th Street
Created by Alan Govenar and Akin Babatunde,
Directed and choreographed by Mr. Babatunde.
Previews begin September 8th; Closes October 4th, 2009

Blind Lemon Blues was presented as a York mainstage production in 2007 for a special 10-performance run featuring Benita Arterberry, Akin Babatunde, Timothy Parham, Lillias White, Cavin Yarbrough, Alisa Peoples Yarbrough and guitarist Sam Swank. The New York Times declared it "a lively and intelligent new musical-an inspiration!" and Variety concurred, saying "Blues lovers be grateful... very, very grateful-Blind Lemon Jefferson's voice emerges with full force!"
Jefferson was a blind street musician who played his guitar with a tin cup tied to it until a Paramount Records scout discovered him. Between 1926 and 1929, Jefferson made more than 80 records and became the biggest selling down-home blues singer in America. Blind Lemon Blues is set in New York City in 1948 at the last recording session of the legendary Huddie Ledbetter, better known as Leadbelly, and combines elements of traditional blues, gospel, rhythm and blues, soul, doo-wop, and rap to evoke the enduring legacy of Blind Lemon and his contemporaries Blind Willie Johnson, Lillian Glinn, Hattie Hudson, Bobbie Cadillac, Lillian Miller and Leadbelly himself.
Tickets are available at the York box office (212) 935-5820 and on its website, www.yorktheatre.org.

Drawn from her life and letters this touchingly comic portrait will remind you why so many put their faith in this wise, funny, no-nonsense woman.

#16 IDIOT SAVANT
Opens TBD
The Public Theater
The Public Theater, 425 Lafayette Street
Written and Directed by Richard Foreman
Previews begin October 27th; Closes December 6th, 2009
With Willem Dafoe

Marie asks the Idiot Savant, "But what makes certain words - magic?" What follows is a wild theatrical odyssey that could only have sprung from the fantastical mind of Richard Foreman (The Threepenny Opera), New York's legendary avant-garde genius. This new work is a philosophical comedy, in the great tradition of Ionesco and Preston Sturges. From precise existential and metaphysical acrobatics, to a ridiculous game of inter-species golf with a Giant Duck, Idiot Savant is a fresh, bracing and hilarious exploration of the boundaries of the legitimate. Presented in association with Ontological-Hysteric Theater.

For more information or tickets, please see www.publictheater.org.


#17 NIGHTINGALE
Opens November 3rd, 2009
The Manhattan Theatre Club
Stage I at NY City Center, 131 West 55th Street
Written by Lynn Redgrave
Directed by Joseph Hardy
Previews begin October 15th; Closes December 13th, 2009

Tony Award and Academy Award nominee Lynn Redgrave has written and will act in the new play inspired by her need to discover memories of her grandmother - a woman she barely knew. Redgrave, the author of Shakespeare For My Father, creates the events that likely transformed Mildred from an eager, naïve girl into an embittered woman and explores Mildred's troubled relationships with her husband, her children and her life.

Nightingale is a play about a promising woman stymied by society and all but erased by history, a touching personal tribute and a resounding song for all those people whose voices we've lost, or never known. Directing this New York premiere is Tony Award winner Joseph Hardy (Child's Play).

For more information, please visit www.mtc-nyc.org.

Written by Liz Duffy Adams
Directed by Wendy McClellan
Previews begin October 29th; Closes November 22nd, 2009

Aphra Behn is getting out of the spy trade and into show biz, if she can only write her play without interruptions from her love life - celebrity Nell Gwynne, King Charles II, and double-agent William Scott, among others. While war rages and Aphra and her friends celebrate free love, cross-dressing and pastoral lyricism, the 1660s start to look a lot like the 1960s. Verse or prose, now or then, love or death... and a lot of kissing.

Single tickers are available for $52 and are on sale now at www.Telecharge.com or (212) 239-6200. Member Tickets $15 at membership@womensproject.org or (212) 765-2105. For groups of nine or more, tickets are $25 at membership@womensproject.org or (212) 765-2105.


#19 THE HEART IS A LONELY HUNTER
Opens TBD
New York Theatre Workshop
New York Theatre Workshop, 79 East 4th Street
Based on the novel by Carson McCullers
Adapted by Rebecca Gilman
Directed by Doug Hughes
Previews begin in November 1st; Closes December 31st, 2009

Carson McCullers' classic novel is adapted for the stage by acclaimed playwright Rebecca Gilman (Spinning Into Butter) and directed by Doug Hughes (The Beard of Avon at NYTW, Doubt). A beautiful and timeless tale about the universal need for human connection, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter follows the story of deaf John Singer as he navigates the world without his dearest friend who has been committed to an insane asylum. When Singer moves to a small Southern town, the locals flock to him as a newfound confidant, seeking compassion and understanding from the one person who needs it the most. Singer's isolation in the world is mirrored in a few of the townspeople he meets along the way-a café owner, a rebellious teenager, a black physician, and an idealistic labor organizer-whose dreams have been shattered. The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter intertwines the lives of these characters in a surprising way that results in a deeply moving story of outcasts in the South during the Great Depression.

Memberships are available by calling the NYTW Box Office at (212) 460-5475, Tuesday through Saturday, 11:00am to 5:00pm, or online at www.nytw.org.

The prestigious cast includes Justin Kirk (Weeds) Mark-Paul Goesslaar (Saved by the Bell, NYPD Blue)

Previews - Part II begins December 3rd; Closes March 6th, 2010
Previews - Part III begins January 7th, 2010; Closes March 6th, 2010

Set in Foote's fictitious town of Harrison, Texas and based partly on the childhood of Foote's father and the courtship and marriage of his parents, The Orphans' Home Cycle is a wide-ranging, intricate work that spans the lives of three families over three decades. All actors in the production will be playing multiple roles and several will track their characters through time in the various plays, which comprise the Cycle.

The Orphans' Home Cycle begins with a father's death in a small Texas town at the turn of the century, a loss that sends his son, Horace Robedaux, on an odyssey through the darkest corners of the heart as he learns to become a husband, father and patriarch. Bill Heck ("The Closer," "Medium," "Without a Trace," "CSI: New York") will play the central role of the adult Horace Robedaux, with Maggie Lacey (Dividing the Estate, Inherit the Wind, Our Town) as his wife, Elizabeth Vaughn Robedaux.

Foote completed work on The Orphans' Home Cycle prior to his death on March 4, 2009 at the age of 92. The cycle features nine plays that were originally written as full-length pieces. The Signature commissioned Foote in 2007 to adapt the plays in this new three-part form.

Part I ("The Story of a Childhood") begins at the turn of the 20th century and follows Horace Robedaux in his formative years. Part I begins with the plays Roots in a Parched Ground, Convicts and Lily Dale.

Part II ("The Story of a Marriage") focuses on the courtship years of Horace Robedaux and his search for a wife. Part II consists of the plays The Widow Claire, Courtship and Valentine's Day.

Part III ("The Story of a Family") begins with the turmoil of World War I and ends with the characters looking to the future of their family and land. Part III is made up of the plays 1918, Cousins and The Death of Papa.

TICKETS
Traditional and marathon subscriptions are now on sale for the Signature Theatre Company run of The Orphans' Home Cycle, with the box office open for individual ticket sales beginning September 15th. Through The Signature Ticket Initiative, which seeks to make great theatre accessible to the broadest possible audience, all regularly-priced single tickets ($65) during the initial announced run are underwritten and will be available for $20 for the individual performances of all three parts. The Signature Ticket Initiative continues through Signature's 20th Anniversary Season (2010-2011).

Written by Bernard Shaw
Directed by Jeff Steitzer
Previews begin December 4th; Closes January 24th, 2010

A free-spirited lady acrobat, an incompetent assassin, and an excitable underwear tycoon.
