In the Heights tells the universal story of a vibrant community in New York's Washington Heights neighborhood- a place where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music. It's a community on the brink of chance, full of hopes, dreams and pressures where the biggest struggles can be deciding which traditions you take with you, and which ones you leave behind.

An operetta composed by Leonard Bernstein.
Lyrics by Wilbur, Sondheim, LaTouche, Parker, and Hellman.

University Opera Theatre
University Symphony Orchestra
Kenneth Kiesler, conductor
Matthew Ozawa, director

Adapted from the 1759 novella by Voltaire, this satirical and comic operetta follows good-natured, naïve young Candide on his adventures across the globe. Through war, natural disasters, and other trials, the ever-optimistic Candide and his companions cling to the philosophy that they live in “the best of all possible worlds,” even when reality threatens to teach them otherwise. Candide takes us on a wildly buoyant journey, reminding us that by cultivating “our very own garden,” we have the power to create a world we wish to live in.

Our production celebrates the 100th birthday of American composer Leonard Bernstein, whose musical compositions are renowned for brilliantly uniting diverse musical styles. Candide, first conceived in 1953 by playwright Lillian Hellman, has gained enormous popularity having been performed by opera and musical theatre companies alike. While the show has undergone numerous revisions and incantations such as the 1988 Scottish Opera Version (which U-M will perform), Candide features Bernstein’s most inventive and melodic score, including such favorites as “Glitter and Be Gay” and “Make Our Garden Grow.” In collaboration with the Departments of Theatre & Drama and Musical Theatre, this unique production is sure to be filled with raucous entertainment and exceptional emotional power.

A romantic comedy by William Shakespeare

Department of Theatre & Drama
Directed by Daniel Cantor.

Shakespeare’s timeless romantic comedy, Twelfth Night follows separated twins Sebastian and Viola. Finding herself shipwrecked off Illyria and believing her brother dead, Viola disguises herself as a man and enters the service of Duke Orsino. The Duke believes himself in love with Olivia, but Olivia is swiftly falling for the disguised Viola. In the meantime, Viola is developing feelings for the Duke. When Sebastian (who is not dead) arrives in Illyria, confusion reigns supreme. Unrequited love and mistaken identities abound as the foursome journey towards a joyous discovery.

Twelfth Night, written around 1601, is one of Shakespeare’s richest plays. The show takes its title from the revelry following the twelfth day of Christmas, bringing together romance and music in a tale full of folly (it is also the day the first production was performed). One of the most “modern” of Shakespeare’s plays, the comedy’s themes about the fickleness of love, the arbitrary nature of relationships, and the re-thinking of sexuality all conspire with brilliant verse to push boundaries and look at the world upside down. Twelfth Night explores not only the nature of desire, but how perception is clouded by desire, and in turn, explores the very nature of perception itself. What is the disguise and what is the truth, is never absolutely certain, and often in the eye of the beholder (hence the play’s subtitle, What You Will). As Feste, the play’s clown says, “that which is so is not so.” The production puts a twentieth-century twist on the story, framing the action in a world inflected by the delightful sites and sounds of the 1930s.

*Twelfth Night runs approximately three hours including one intermission.
