Alan Cumming Current highlights for our upcoming season include a stunning new production of Kurt Weill’s The Threepenny Opera starring Alan Cumming, Edie Falco and Nellie McKay, and an all new production of Eugene O'Neil's seminal work, A Touch of the Poet.

Edie FalcoThe Threepenny Opera serves up a deliciously dark satire of "respectable" society, with dashing thieves, saucy prostitutes, and lingering melodies. Tony Award® winner Alan Cumming leads the ensemble as Macheath, Nellie McKayEmmy® and Golden Globe® award winner Edie Falco as Jenny and singer / pianist / songwriter Nellie McKay as Polly in this new Broadway production. Translated and adapted by Wallace Shawn and directed by Scott Elliott, performances begin Spring 2006.

O'Neill's A Touch Of The Poet is an electrifying eloquent, humorous, and devastating portrait of the death of pipe dreams. It revolves around Con Melody , a hot-blooded tavern keeper whose proud past as an officer and gentlemen draws him to a heart-pounding confrontation with his wealthy Yankees neighbors. Like Long Day's Journey Into Night and A Moon For The Misbegotten, this O'Neill masterpiece reigns in the pantheon of great American family dramas.

Also under consideration are The House of Blue Leaves by John Guare, the New York Premiere of Noah Idle's Mr. Marmalade and Entertaining Mr. Sloane by Joe Orton.
