Lincoln Center to Present Graceland and On the Levee as LCT3 Productions

Lincoln Center has announced the next two productions in its LCT3 series, devoted to producing the work of new artists and developing new audiences. Both works will be presented at the Duke on 42nd Street.

The New York premiere of Ellen Fairey’s Graceland will play May 3-29, to be directed by Henry Wishcamper. This is a comedic drama about two estranged siblings who are reunited when they try to make sense of their father’s recent suicide.

LCT3 will also present the world premiere of the musical play On the Levee (June 14-July 10), conceived and directed by Lear deBessonet, with book by Marcus Gardley, with music and lyrics by Todd Almond. The show is based on a true story and is set in 1927 in Greenville, Mississippi on a levee during an almost forgotten flood.

LCT3 is currently presenting Ann Marie Healy’s What Once We Felt at the Duke, through November 21.
