Spring Cleaning by Frederick Lonsdale, a spicy comedy about infidelity, began previews September 2, 1923 at Detroit's Bonstelle Theatre. But the play has never been seen in Wisconsin, until now. Even the film adaptations once screened here are now considered lost.
Choreographer Beth Soll will present her Beth Soll & Company, an ensemble of dancers and musicians in Dances of Passion and Peace, A Concert of New Dance, Music, Poetry, and Translation, an evening of all premieres, set to new music by composers Thomas Addison, Nuria Divi, Wendy Griffiths, Josh Rosen, and Stan Strickland, and poetry, both sung and spoken, of Robert Frost, Lin Haire-Sargeant, Langston Hughes, Rumi, and Walt Whitman. Poems will be recited in English, French, Catalan, German, French, and American Sign Language. Performances November 22 & 23 at 8 PM at University Settlement, 184 Eldridge Street.
Long Wharf Theatre, in association with the McCarter Theater Center, presents the 15TH anniversary production of Crowns, written and directed by Regina Taylor.
