The Wild Party

Queenie is throwing a party—and you’re invited! Don your best flapper outfit and visit Queenie & Burrs’s apartment in 1920s New York City for a night like no other. Directed by Saheem Ali (Fat Ham), The Wild Party is a jazz-age tragedy about a gin-soaked party tinged with danger and desire. What happens when a night of debauchery leads to a morning of sobering truths?

Michael John LaChiusa (The Gardens of Anuncia) and George C. Wolfe(Jelly’s Last Jam) bring Joseph Moncure March’s notorious narrative poem to life in their vivid musical adaptation. This “dangerous, seedy, fantastic” (The Observer) party is full of jazz-age indulgence and Vaudeville stars letting loose off-the-clock.
