Tuck Everlasting THEATREWORKS SILICON VALLEY PRESENTS A MAGICAL MUSICAL FOR THE HOLIDAYS Tuck Everlasting Book by Claudia Shear & Tim Federle Music by Chris Miller • Lyrics by Nathan Tysen Based on the novel by Natalie Babbitt Directed by Robert Kelley November 28 – December 30, 2018 (opening night: December 1) LUCIE STERN THEATRE, PALO ALTO PALO ALTO, CA (30 October 2018) — TheatreWorks Silicon Valley brings an enchanted bestseller to life for the holidays with the regional premiere of Tuck Everlasting. Set in the 1890s, free-spirited Winnie Foster searches for adventure, finding the Tucks, a close-knit family that has discovered the secret to everlasting life. Winnie faces the choice of a lifetime: return to everyday life, or join the Tucks on their infinite, irreversible voyage through time. Directed by TheatreWorks Founding Artistic Director Robert Kelley, Tuck Everlasting will be presented November 28 – December 30 (press opening: December 1) at Lucie Stern Theatre, 1305 Middlefield Rd., Palo Alto. For tickets ($40-$100) and more information the public may visit TheatreWorks.org or call (650) 463-1960. Featuring a rousing score with music by Chris Miller and lyrics by Nathan Tysen and a wealth of warm-hearted humor in Claudia Shear and Tim Federle’s charming book, this whimsical Broadway musical offers families a magical holiday treat. This production also marks something of a homecoming for Miller and Tysen, who created songs for Tuck Everlasting while in residence at the 2010 TheatreWorks’ Writers’ Retreat, and developed and presented their earlier musical The Burnt Part Boys at TheatreWorks’ 2006 New Works Festival. Based on the bestselling novel by Natalie Babbitt, Tuck Everlasting has been adapted into a 2002 Disney film and a 1981 One Pass media film. The musical adaptation of Tuck Everlasting made its World Premiere at Atlanta’s Alliance Theatre in 2015, where it won the Suzi Bass Award for “Outstanding Musical Production.” Its 2016 Broadway debut was nominated for a Tony Award, as well as the Outer Critics Circle Award for “Outstanding Musical” and Drama League Award for “Outstanding Production of a Musical.” The New York Times called it “Rapturous, warm-spirited and ______________________________________________________________________________________________ MEDIA CONTACT: Lauren Goldfarb, CARLA BEFERA & CO. 3600 West Bayshore Road, Suite 203/ Palo Alto, ca 94303 Phone 650.327.1200 Fax 650.327.6700 Email: [email protected] touching,” while Associated Press declared, “The music is magical.

Dirty Blonde is directed by BoHo Artistic Advisor Stephen Genovese. “I made myself platinum, but I was born a dirty blonde.” –Mae West Claudia Shear’s hilarious and touching play weaves together the rise and fall of Mae West, the legendary star of stage and screen, with the awkward romance of Jo and Charlie, two Mae West fanatics in present- day New York. The brash and outspoken Jo is an aspiring actress stuck in a cycle of temp jobs while Charlie, a meek and introspective soul, works in the film archives of the New York public library. Though seemingly polar opposites, both are striving for something they see in Mae—a confidence and finesse that made her into the extravagant, sexy, taboo-breaking public persona that was the hallmark of her fame. But Mae sacrificed much to maintain her public image. What are Charlie and Jo willing to sacrifice to become like her? Directed by Jeff Award-winning director Stephen Genovese (Sideshow, The Glorious Ones, I Am My Own Wife (co-director)), the production features three versatile and talented performers who sing, dance, and play dozens of characters.

Many plays have not only gone on to subsequent productions but have attained critical success as well. Next to Normal, a 2007 recipient at Second Stage Theatre (New York) had a second production at Arena Stage (Washington). It then transferred to Broadway in April 2009 and is nominated for 11 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Another 2007 recipient, 33 Variations had its first production at Arena Stage (Washington) and its second production at LaJolla Playhouse (California).
