About The Event
Part of the Lab's residency at Powerhouse Theare
Composed and Music Direction by Scotty Arnold Produced by Brittany Proia & Hannah Karp
Scotty Arnold’s musical adaptations of Shakespeare's All’s Well That Ends Well and Twelfth Night. In All’s Well That Ends Well, low-born Helen pursues the love of high-born Bertram. But even if she can overcome her station, can she get Bertram to love her back? A fun mirror to Taming of the Shrew, All’s Well asks: how far is Helen willing to go to get what she wants? Twelfth Night tells the story of Viola and Sebastian, twins who are separated in a shipwreck. How will these two survive on their own in a strange land, will they find their way back to each other, and might they find love of another kind along the way? Find out in this adventurous romantic comedy.
Arnold, a musical theater writer and five-time Powerhouse alum, dusts off these classic plays and boils them…
