“Annapurna” is the name of a massif in the Himalaya mountain range, the Hindu goddess of nourishment and the next play in the reimagined and fully digital Syracuse Stage 2020/2021 season. Written by Sharr White and directed by Stage artistic director Robert Hupp, “Annapurna” is a carefully balanced blend of sharp comedy and surprisingly tender drama that draws inspiration from both meanings of its title.
Hosts Drew Quinones and Jeff Croiter welcome Kate Freer (Multimedia Artist) and Ty Defoe (Writer / Interdisciplinary Artist); Marci Skolnick (Stage Manager / Show Caller) and Natalie Robin (Lighting Designer / Professor); and Philip Rosenberg (Lighting Designer) and Isaac Hurwitz (Producer) and more.
Syracuse Stage never ceases to amaze me with their eye for productions, casting, and unique presentations.

Syracuse Stage’s production of the stunning documentary drama Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992 by Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize nominated playwright Anna Deavere Smith is beautifully and creatively directed by Steve H. Broadnax III.
