IMAGINING MADOFF finds Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff in prison, determined to control his own narrative for history as he dictates to a visiting biographer stories about his childhood, his family, women, money and an all-night meeting he had with Holocaust survivor and poet, Solomon Galkin.

IMAGINING MADOFF made its NYC premiere at 59E59 Theaters in March, where the run sold out before it began performances. The play was nominated for the Charles MacArthur Award for Outstanding New Play or Musical at the 2012 Helen Hayes awards when it premiered in Washington, DC. Actor Jeremiah Kissel received an Elliott Norton Award for his portrayal of Madoff at its Boston premiere.

The design team includes Brian Dudkiewicz (scenic design); Michael O'Connor (lighting design); Kara Branch (costume design); Andy Evan Cohen (sound design); and Leila Ben-Abdallah (prop design).

Led by Artistic Director Sarah Norris and Producing Director Michael Aguirre, New Light Theater Project is an ensemble-driven theater company that strives to capture the Little Theater Movement (artistry over commerce; producing new and classic works), supporting independent and emerging artists by providing and promoting growth opportunities through exposure to new audiences.
