About the Show
IT’S 1969,
AND THE WORLD IS CHANGING.
SO IS SHE.
It’s the Summer of 1969. Pearl Kantrowitz, a Brooklyn mother and housewife, takes the annual trip north to a Catskills bungalow colony just as the world begins to shift beneath her feet. The country is reaching for the moon. A new spirit of freedom is sweeping the nation. And an unexpected encounter leads her to a musical festival happening just around the corner. As the countercultural revolution begins, and music starts to change the world, Pearl awakens to a life beyond the one she’s always known.
Based on the award-winning hit film and directed by Tony Award®-nominee Sheryl Kaller, adapted by original screenwriter Pamela Gray, with music and lyrics by Tony and Grammy Award®-nominee AnnMarie Milazzo and additional lyrics by Pamela Gray, A WALK ON THE MOON is the stirring new musical about one woman’s leap into her own future. Set against a blend of pulse-pounding ’60s sounds and modern pop sensibilities, it’s a story that speaks to a moment when the world was alive with seismic change in culture and identity — much like today.
