Verge Theater is thrilled to present the contemporary Jason Robert Brown musical, Songs for a New World, at the Emerson Center for the Arts & Culture. Opening February 2nd and running through February 18th, this is the perfect cozy night out to enjoy ninety minutes of transformative vocal performances supported by a four piece band. Friday and Saturday shows begin at 7pm, with a 3pm Sunday matinee to follow.
Under the skilled guidance of director Tessa Welsch and musical director Lori Rosolowsky, this tight-knit cast of talented vocalists will guide audiences through a series of songs that intertwine inspirational, empathetic characters and history, diving deep into what it means to be human. Each song brings you into the heart and soul of the characters experiencing universal joys, sorrows, hopes and fears. Like a mirror, Songs for a New World offers the chance for you to see yourself in each story.
Audiences are invited to attend a special Valentine’s performance on Feb. 14th at 7pm. The event will include champagne, sweet treats and a transformative show. Tickets are $50 for this date night curated for local lovebirds.
