press release: (2012 Updated Version) by Nina Faso & Stephen Schwartz, with contributions by Gordon Greenberg, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Craig Carnelia, & James Taylor. Directed & Choreographed by Cindy Severt. Music Direction by Evan Lange.
Nominated for six Tony Awards, including Best Score, Working features songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton), Stephen Schwartz (Pippin, Wicked), and James Taylor. Based on Studs Terkel’s best-selling book, Working celebrates our search for meaning and satisfaction in the daily grind. This down-to-earth yet elevating musical is woven from funny and poignant interviews of twenty-six real American workers. You’ll meet a schoolteacher, millworker, waitress, mason, and stay-at-home mom (to name just a few), who share not only their daily routines, but their hopes and aspirations as well.
On the Drury stage. Tickets - $25. Purchase ONLINE or call 608-661-9696 (between 2 pm & 6 pm, Tues - Fri).
