Emerging Artists Theatre Presents CRAZY: FOR JONGHYUN
The workshop production is part of the 2022 New Work Series. Performance takes place at TADA Theatre in Manhattan on April 6.
Emerging Artists Theatre will present CRAZY: for Jonghyun written by Susan W Chamberlin and directed by Graydon Gund. The workshop production is part of the 2022 New Work Series. Performance takes place at TADA Theatre in Manhattan on April 6, 7 pm. Also presented on April 6 are Within Us by NewBrese Dance and Main Character Syndrome by Kelsey Rondeau.
Jonghyun's tender lyrics of longing and charismatic stage presence made him millions of fans worldwide. A Kpop stan, Helen, calls on Jonghyun for help with her own desperation. The two spar over questions of love and life in a disconnected world. A dark comedy about suicide, CRAZY: for Jonghyun asks, "Can the dead save the living?"
The cast features Isabelle Garbani as Helen; Kevin Dwan as Jonghyun; and Olivia Massiah as Lucy.
