2015 - 2016 SEASON A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC

Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim • Book by Hugh Wheeler Suggested by the film Smiles of a Summer Night by Ingmar Bergman Directed by Peter DuBois September 11 – October 11, 2015 • Avenue of the Arts / BU Theatre SUMPTUOUS TONY AWARD-WINNING MUSICAL Lovers reunite, passions reignite, and new romances blossom around famous actress Desiree Armfeldt (Tony and Olivier Award nominee Haydn Gwynne) and an unforgettable cast of characters during an eventful weekend in the country. Stephen Sondheim’s most romantic and popular work features a gorgeous, sweeping score infused with humor, warmth, and the flavor of a waltz, including Sondheim’s best known song, “Send in the Clowns.” Directed by Artistic Director Peter DuBois, this exquisite musical celebration of love is the must-see event of the season!

CHOICE

by Winnie Holzman (Wicked, “My So-Called Life”) • Directed by Sheryl Kaller October 16 – November 15, 2015 • South End / Calderwood Pavilion at the BCA THOUGHT-PROVOKING NEW COMEDY When successful journalist Zipporah Zunder takes on an assignment to investigate a new and polarizing social phenomenon, she is unprepared for how deeply this story will impact her life, transforming her understanding of herself, her past, and her future. Funny, smart, and deeply emotional, this unpredictable new play looks at all the layers that live inside a single choice.

A CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES

by Jeffrey Hatcher • Based on the iconic novel by John Kennedy Toole Directed by David Esbjornson (Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, All My Sons) November 11 – December 13, 2015 • Avenue of the Arts / BU Theatre WILD COMIC RIDE Nick Offerman (“Parks & Recreation”) stars as larger-than-life character Ignatius J. Reilly, the Don Quixote of the French Quarter. He’s overweight, arrogant, eccentric, and still living in his mother’s New Orleans basement in the 1960s. Adapted from the cult classic, Pulitzer Prizewinning novel, A Confederacy of Dunces is a hilarious wild ride, filled with colorful characters and comic misadventures.

DISGRACED

by Ayad Ahktar • Directed by Gordon Edelstein January 8 – February 7, 2016 • Avenue of the Arts / BU Theatre RIVETING BROADWAY HIT Winner of the 2013 Pulitzer Prize High-powered New York lawyer Amir has climbed the corporate ladder while distancing himself from his Muslim roots. When he and his wife Emily host a dinner party, what starts as a friendly conversation escalates, shattering their views on race, religion, and each other in this electric and riveting drama.

2015 - 2016 SEASON HOW I LEARNED WHAT I LEARNED

by August Wilson • Directed by Todd Kreidler • Featuring Eugene Lee March 5 – April 3, 2016 • Avenue of the Arts / BU Theatre POWERFUL MEMOIR FROM AN AMERICAN MASTER In this solo show, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright August Wilson shares stories about his first few jobs, a stint in jail, his lifelong friends, and his encounters with racism, music, and love as a young poet in Pittsburgh’s Hill District. Directed by Todd Kreidler and featuring Eugene Lee, both longtime Wilson collaborators, this theatrical memoir charts one man’s journey of self-discovery through adversity, and what it means to be a black artist in America.

CAN YOU FORGIVE HER?

by Gina Gionfriddo (Rapture, Blister, Burn; Becky Shaw) Directed by Peter DuBois March 25 – April 24, 2016 • South End / Calderwood Pavilion at the BCA BITING NEW COMEDY It’s Halloween night, and Miranda is desperate for a way out. She’s up to her neck in debt, she might be in falling for the man who pays her bills, and now her date has threatened to kill her. A charismatic stranger offers shelter and a drink; where will the night take them? With her trademark dark humor, two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist Gina Gionfriddo presents complicated characters wrestling with love, money, and their past in this sharp contemporary comedy.

I WAS MOST ALIVE WITH YOU

Written & directed by Craig Lucas (The Light in the Piazza, Prelude to a Kiss) May 27 – June 26, 2016 • South End / Calderwood Pavilion at the BCA AMBITIOUS & MOVING NEW PLAY At Thanksgiving dinner, Knox shares that he is grateful for three things he thought were a curse: being Deaf, being gay, and being an alcoholic. After a terrible accident and what feels like the trials of Job, he and his family’s resilience is put to the test.

Written both in English and American Sign Language, Craig Lucas’ funny, ambitious, and beautiful new play pulses with the exhilaration and ache of human connection.

PLUS A SPECIAL EVENT

MILK LIKE SUGAR

by Kirsten Greenidge • Directed by M. Bevin O’Gara January 29 – February 28, 2016 • South End / Calderwood Pavilion at the BCA PROVOCATIVE DRAMA Annie and her teenage friends want the same things: the hottest new phones, cute boys, designer bags. But when they enter into a pregnancy pact, she wonders if there might be a different path and a brighter future. Huntington Playwriting Fellow Kirsten Greenidge (Luck of the Irish) finds raw humor and gritty poetry in this provocative, ripped-from-the-headlines new play.
