Four Saints in Three Acts

It wasn’t until later on in theatre history that revivals began including shows that weren’t initially well received or financially successful in their initial engagements. As musical theatre continued to evolve, and more shows entered the canon, a consensus began to grow about shows being worthy of additional exploration even if they hadn’t been hits the first time around. What about musicals that had been ahead of their time, musicals that had fallen prey to circumstances, early works by writers who became successful later on, and of course, shows that found an audience after closing via their cast recordings?

Due to critical acclaim and popular demand, Transport Group and Lucille Lortel Theatre have announced a one-week extension of Joey Merlo’s On Set with Theda Bara. Learn more about how to get tickets to the new dates here!

Transport Group and Lucille Lortel Theatre will present the Off-Broadway engagement of Joey Merlo’s On Set with Theda Bara starring six-time Obie winner David Greenspan who channels all four characters in this uniquely intimate, seance-like production.

Dressed all in white, singing like angels and dancing like the devil, the 13 performers of "Gertrude Stein's Saints" are young, energetic, talented, and, let's face it, hot enough to be cast in Glee. What's most remarkable about this ensemble, all of them drama students at Carnegie Mellon University, is that, instead of covering songs by Journey or Rihanna, they have composed original music and turned two inaccessible avant-garde operas into a rousing entertainment.

Current students and alumni from Carnegie Mellon University's School of Drama will join forces to present 'Gertrude Stein SAINTS!' at the 17th Annual New York International Fringe Festival (FringeNYC), today, Aug. 9 - 25, in New York City.
