Old Wicked Songs by Jon Marans

May 29 to June 22, 2008

A passion for music, a passion for life. At the age of 25, piano prodigy Stephen Hoffman has lost both. In an attempt to reclaim his love of music, he travels to Vienna to study with a master, and comes face to face with the haunting specter of the Holocaust. Profound and profoundly moving, filled with humor, Old Wicked Songs is suffused throughout with the gorgeous music of Robert Schumann. Nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. Single Tickets >>

In Association with Vienna's English Theatre

“ [a] stirring mixture of joy and sorrow.” —The New York Times.
