"Impossible But True" is an immersive tavern musical that brings the audience into a small town in the Catskills as the American revolution arrives.  It is loosely based on Washington Irving's fabled tale of "Rip Van Winkle"--except in this version, Rip disappears for 20 years when he gets PTSD from serving in the Revolutionary War.  The character of Rip's hot-tempered wife, Rebecca, is expanded and we learn about how she helped lead a battle against the British.

The cast of Molly Bremer, Laura Bright, Timothy Jacob Brown, John Calabrese, Joe Castinado, RJ Christian, Julia Fein, Ace McCarthy and Amalia Sancholuz sings, dances and shares the story in the aisles, at the bar, and in front of the piano.

Book, music, and lyrics by Dan Furman.  Directed by Cailín Heffernan (SDC) with Furman as Music Director and Caleigh Chapman as stage manager.

At Old Stone House, come early (6:45) for samples of "flip" (the most popular tavern drink in revolutionary America!) outside at the brick oven.

At Balboa, arrive at 7:00 to order dinner with the show:  delicious and affordable Carribean chicken.

At Soho Playhouse, share a toast with the cast in the Huron Club--a real theater tavern!
