Proscenium Theatre at The Drake

You know the Nutcracker the ballet, but what if the ballet was performed by only one man? If the daughter Marie, little boy Fritz, creepy uncle Drosselmeyer, the mice, the Sugar Plum fairy, were all channeled through one actor. Chris Davis is proud to bring you One-Man Nutcracker, a re-telling of the original E.T.A. Hoffman Nutcracker Story and the Ballet.

<h1>The Seasons</h1>
Philadelphia Premiere Music by Antonio Vivaldi Based on The Four Seasons with additional arias and ensembles by Vivaldi Libretto by Sarah Ruhl  Co-Conceived by Anthony Roth Costanzo and Sarah Ruhl In collaboration with Pam Tanowitz and Zack Winokur Directed by Zack Winokur, Choregraphed by Pam Tanowitz Developed by SCENE and AMOC* Performed in English, Italian, and Latin with English supertitles
You could say Vivaldi had a kind of synesthesia when writing The Four Seasons. What does being cold feel and sound like? MacArthur Award-winning playwright and librettist Sarah Ruhl joins Anthony Roth Costanzo to co-conceive a tapestry of Vivaldi’s music, telling an original story about a world in which the seasons are completely out of order. Tony Award-winning set designer Mimi Lien collaborates with M.I.T. materials technologist Jack Forman to fuse art and science, bringing atmospheric events to the stage. Celebrated choreographer Pam Tanowitz creates a maelstrom of dance, director Zack Winokur helms the production, and Corrado Rovaris conducts the rapturous piece, which stars Costanzo.
