St. Ann's Warehouse Announces '07/8 Season

According to Variety, Brooklyn's acclaimed St. Ann's Warehouse has announced its 2007-2008 season, featuring a line-up that includes a Samuel Beckett festival and a production of the new Scottish play Black Watch.

The "Beckett Season," which was first seen at Dublin's Gate Theatre and later played Sydney, will have a run at St. Anne's this winter; the cast and exact dates will be announced.

The Tiger Lillies will perform their quirkily titled concert "Suicide for Christmas," featuring the band's original songs, from December 13th through 15th.  They previously penned and performed songs for the Off-Broadway hit Shockheaded Peter.

The National Theater of Scotland's Black Watch, which attracted favorable buzz and reviews at last summer's Edinburgh Festival, will run from October 20th through November 11th.  The play concerns "a Scottish military regiment's final tour in Iraq."

Also on the line-up are Dutch director Adelheid Roosen's The Veiled Monologues and Is.Man, which will run October 2nd through 14th.  The productions "center on love under Islam and Muslim honor killings, respectively."  St. Anne's will also present Catalan visual artist Miguel Barcelo's and French choreographer Josef Nadj's Paso Doble, from September 14th through 16th, musician Antony's song set dedicated to a Butoh choreographer, and a Polish production of Macbeth by the theatre group TR Warszawa and director Grzegorz Jarzyna, running from June 2nd through 30th.
