Top of PageLady in Gold, The
Synopsis:
The Lady in Gold tells the epic true story of Gustav Klimt and the creation of his masterpiece, "Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer." Crisscrossing between Belle Époque Vienna and late-90's Los Angeles, the play interweaves Klimt's fiery relationship with the painting's model and benefactor, Adele Bloch-Bauer, with the fight her family waged for the painting's return a half-century after it was stolen by the Nazis. A mesmerizing tale of art and justice, based on actual events and inspired by the award-winning book by Anne-Marie O'Connor.

Top of PageMissing Pages of Lewis Carroll, The
Synopsis:
Using a highly visual and poetic approach, The Missing Pages of Lewis Carroll tells a dark version of the story behind Alice in Wonderland. Charles Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll, experienced a charged and ambiguous relationship with Alice Lidell, his 11-year-old muse. As the real world merges with the story he creates, life and art push together at the constrictions of society, and the storyteller becomes invisibly woven into his own tale.
