Chance Theater

Striking 12

Book & Lyrics by Brendan Milburn, Valerie Vigoda, and Rachel Sheinkin, Music by Brenda Milburn and Valerie Vigoda, Directed by Kari Hayter, and Music Direction by Lex Leigh.

November 26 - December 19 Wednesdays - Sundays

Striking 12 is a unique hybrid of riveting musical theater and an electrifying pop-rock concert. It tells the story of a grumpy, overworked New Yorker who has resolved to spend New Year’s Eve alone when an incandescent figure arrives at their door with the promise to chase away the winter doldrums. Striking 12 is a festive tale filled with wit, emotion, and musicianship, creating an anti-holiday musical celebration about rediscovering and reconnecting to the true spirit of the season.

Next To Normal

Music by Tom Kitt. Book & Lyrics by Brian Yorkey. Directed by Matthew McCray. Music Direction by Stephen Hulsey.

January 28 - February 27 Thursdays - Sundays

This powerful musical explores how one suburban household copes with crisis and mental illness. Dad’s an architect; Mom rushes to pack lunches and pour cereal; their daughter and son are bright, wise-cracking teens, appearing to be a typical American family. And yet their lives are anything but normal because the mother has been battling manic depression for 16 years. Next to Normal takes audiences into the minds and hearts of each character, presenting the family’s story with love, sympathy, and heart. NOTE: This show contains adult themes and language. It is recommended for mature audiences.
