THE WHEEL OF LIFE “It’s a wheel, Winnie. Everything’s a wheel, turning and turning, never stopping… People always coming in new, always growing and changing, and always moving on.” presents – Angus Tuck, from Natalie Babbitt’s Tuck Everlasting At TheatreWorks we consider our holiday shows a special gift to our community, a chance to share the joy, energy, and good will of the season with our friends throughout the Bay Area. This year’s gift is a UCK VERLASTING time-traveling journey to an enchanted wood alive with possibilities: growing up, love, maturity, and even T E immortality. Full of mystery, chicanery, and wisdom, Tuck Everlasting invites us to discover the circle of life, a wheel that tonight we may choose to ride or to abandon. Adapted from Natalie Babbitt’s popular Book by Claudia Shear & Tim Federle 1975 novel, this glorious musical asks us all a haunting question: “If you could live forever, would you?”

T E R Nathan Tysen joined our annual Writers’ Retreat with a special project—a new musical. They wrote two captivating songs that week, “Top of the World” and “My Most Beautiful Day,” and shared them with a room full of Lyrics by Nathan Tysen entranced TheatreWorks supporters. You’ll hear those songs today, seven years later. That workshop launched the show on a journey to Broadway, and launched my dream that it would one day come to TheatreWorks. Based on the novel Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt I saw Tuck at Broadway’s Broadhurst Theatre in 2016. The music was astonishing, full of country guitars and backwoods energy. Focused on young, spirited Winnie Foster, the story was tender and captivating; even the lemon-hued villain was Directed by Robert Kelley hilarious. When I heard the pivotal song, “The Wheel,” the inspiring truth of Tuck Everlasting overwhelmed me. I knew it would bring the joy and light of the holidays to TheatreWorks. Musical Direction by William Liberatore Tuck asks us to consider life as a whole—birth and death, good and evil, love and family—and determine its value. Many Choreographer Alex Perez religions accept the progress of life, while postulating an everlasting future: in heaven, in paradise, in rebirth. But what if you could live forever in the present?
