Fall 2007
Theater Mitu presents a workshop of Sister Sarah, Brother Sky in association with New York University- Playwrights Horizons Theater School. Re-orchestrated in collaboration with Theater Mitu member Todd Almond. The piece is an adaptation and re-investigation of the American Musical Guys and Dolls (by Frank Loesser), with additional text by Gertrude Stein and Jean Genet. This radical adaptation dissects American musical theater as a form, bringing the classic piece back to its dark prohibition era roots.
