Photos: First Look at the World Premiere of SHADOWS at ART/NY

Anthony M. Laura's new play SHADOWS is currently playing through December 16 at ART/NY. The limited engagement features a all female cast. The production features original music written by Rose Hart, composed by Philip Lauto and is directed by Laura. Check out all new photos below!

Shadows is an epic love story following Lyndsy Elle Cooper, a famous singer who is attempting a comeback by touring with 13-year-old pop star Jessa King. Lyndsy's world is turned upside down upon learning that her girlfriend is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. The play explores the coincidence of trauma in our lives and the power of love outlasting sorrow.

The all-female cast includes Annette Berning, Mari Blake, Katia Mendoza, Susan Neuffer, Annie-Grace Payne, and Alexandra Rooney. The creative team includes lighting design by Yang Yu, sound design by Trey McGee, scenic design by Hayley Wallenfeldt, projection design by Qixin Zhang. Produced by Face to Face Films.
