    Welcome to a diverse community of archetypes who take one another at face value: a smiling face dealing with depression; a princess who doesn’t want a prince; a skull dying for deletion; a nerd face too smart for his own good; a face with sunglasses who can’t see past his own reflection; and a police officer and construction worker who just want to work together. When a software update threatens to destroy life as they know it, EMOJILAND faces the most fundamental questions a society – and a heart – can face: Who are we? And who matters? An electric ensemble piece featuring an energetic pop score, the production enjoyed a sold-out run at the New York Musical Festival, where it was critically acclaimed by The New York Times as being “charmingly silly fun,” “politically resonant” and “a lesson for our time.” EMOJILAND comes to Off-Broadway with a cavalcade of Broadway favorites, including George Abud (The Band’s Visit), Felicia Boswell (Motown), Max Crumm (Disaster!, Grease) Ann Harada (Avenue Q, Cinderella), Josh Lamon (The Prom), Lesli Margherita (Matilda), Lucas Steele (The Great Comet), and Natalie Weiss (Les Miz, American Idol).

For more information, please contact [email protected]. “SHE’S A SLY ONE:” RETHINKING COMPLICITY AND SURVIVAL IN PAULA VOGEL’S HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE by MARY ANN BARFIELD Under the Direction of Matthew Roudané ABSTRACT In an early 1998 interview, playwright, Paula Vogel, sat in conversation with Arthur Holmberg to discuss the ambivalent victim-perpetrator power dynamics in her critically- acclaimed play, How I Learned to Drive, explaining that “there are two forgivenesses in the play. one forgiveness for Peck, but the most crucial forgiveness would be Li’l Bit’s forgiving Li’l Bit. Li’l Bit as an adult looking at and understanding her complicity.” Since the Holmberg interview, critics have made only passing references to Vogel’s discussion of complicity in play reviews and critical essays. This thesis represents the first sustained engagement with complicity as an ethical subject to argue that Li’l Bit’s dependence upon her uncle for emotional and sometimes physical survival exempts her from moral scrutiny in the course of his abuse.

Dowdall from the Hungarian play Illatszertar by Miklos Laszlo, will have a rare revival as the first theater production of the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts (Lou Moore, Executive Director), for a limited engagement now through December 22. The production, directed by Mark Brokaw, who is currently represented on Broadway with Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella, centers on a romance that unfolds through love letters, a perfect homage to the historic Beverly Hills Post Office. Set during Christmastime, 1937 in Budapest Hungary, the play centers around two bickering employees at an upscale boutique, who have been building an anonymous romantic relationship through letters to one another for two years. This popular comedy has been a favorite in Europe, but is rarely seen in the United States. Written by Hungarian émigré Miklos Laszlo, Parfumerie’s charming plot has been adapted to film several times, including The Shop Around the Corner, In the Good Old Summertime, and You’ve Got Mail, and as the Broadway musical She Loves Me.
