Lincoln Center Theater has announced two new productions for its 2016-17 season. Sarah Ruhl's How to Transcend a Happy Marriage, directed by Rebecca Taichman, will open on March 20 at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater. Then, the LCT3 production of Bryna Turner's Bull in a China Shop will be directed by Lee Sunday Evans, playing February 11 through March 26, with an opening on February 27 at the Claire Tow Theater.
How to Transcend a Happy Marriage is set at a dinner party in the wilds of New Jersey, where two married couples discuss a younger acquaintance: a polyamorous woman who also hunts her own meat. Fascinated, they invite this mysterious woman and her two live-in boyfriends to a New Year’s Eve party, which alters the course of their lives.
The production will have sets by David Zinn, costumes by Susan Hilferty, lights by Peter Kaczorowski, sound by Matt Hubbs, and original music by Todd Almond.
Bull in a China Shop follows Mary Woolley and her partner Jeannette Marks as they reform and revolutionize women's education at the height of the suffrage movement. The show will feature sets by Arnulfo Maldonado, costumes by Oana Botez, lights by Eric Southern, and sound by Broken Chord.
Casting for both productions will be announced at a later date.
