SUMMARY:Ivoryton Playhouse Presents Star of Freedom
DESCRIPTION:A brand-new musical written by Connecticut writers is about to take the stage at Ivoryton Playhouse. STAR OF FREEDOM\, with music and lyrics by Jeff Blaney and book by Lawrence Thelen\, opens the Playhouse’s 2022 Season beginning April 7. \nBased on Blaney’s concept album Exodus\, STAR OF FREEDOM takes us on a journey with Sean and Chloe as they search for the meaning of home in 1860s America. The two come from completely different worlds – one an Irish immigrant\, the other an African-American slave – but when the Civil War forces their lives to intersect\, they show us what it means to be American during the 19th century. At a time when America is struggling with its identity\, it’s worth looking back to another difficult time in history that ultimately led to a stronger and more unified nation. Though today we still see the flaws and scars that this history left behind\, STAR OF FREEDOM brings us a ray of hope through the lives of these two very different characters. \nSTAR OF FREEDOM is at times funny and whimsical\, while at other times tragically sad. Blaney’s intimate and refreshing score (played by the actors on stage) is steeped in Irish and Southern traditions\, making it both contemporary and nostalgic at the same time; while Thelen’s book is timely and theatrical. \nConceived and directed by the Playhouse’s own Artistic Director\, Jacqueline Hubbard\, this world premiere musical features a terrific line-up of actor/musicians\, including Danny Adams as Sean\, and Ayla Stackhouse as Chloe. The nearly 30 other characters in the story are handled by Brian Michael Carey*\, Luke Darnell*\, Richard E. Waits * and Ben Hope* who also musical directs. Karilyn Ashley Surratt joins the creative team as choreographer. \nThe show has sets and lights designed by Marcus Abbott; costumes by Elizabeth Saylor; and sound by Adam Jackson. \nSTAR OF FREEDOM opens at the Ivoryton Playhouse on Thursday\, April 7 and runs through Sunday\, May 1\, 2022. Performance times are Wednesday and Sunday matinees at 2:00 pm; evening performances are Wednesday and Thursday at 7:30 pm\, Friday and Saturday at 8:00 pm. There will be one Thursday matinee on April 7 at 2:00 pm and one Saturday matinee on April 9 at 2:00 pm. \nThis season\, the Playhouse is back to full capacity for the first time in two years\, yet the safety of our audience remains our primary concern. Masks are no longer required\, though recommended\, and patrons must provide proof of vaccination or a negative covid test result for admittance. Knowing all audience members are covid-free will provide a safe and enjoyable experience for all. \nTickets are $55 for adults\, $50 for seniors\, and $25 for students. Tickets go on sale beginning March 1 and are available online at ivorytonplayhouse.org or by calling the box office at 860.767.7318. (For information on group rates\, please call the box office.) For more information on the entire 2022 season\, visit ivorytonplayhouse.org. The Playhouse is located at 103 Main Street in Ivoryton.

SUMMARY:The Porch On Windy Hill
DESCRIPTION:The Ivoryton Playhouse builds on its growing reputation as a home for new and developing works when it presents the original play with music THE PORCH ON WINDY HILL\, opening September 23. Featuring longtime Playhouse favorite David Lutken\, the musical play\, directed by Sherry Lutken\, also stars Lisa Helmi Johanson\, Morgan Morse and EJ Zimmerman at selected performances. \nThis talented band of musicians wrote this piece during the roller coaster ride of 2020 and 2021. They bring to the work their own experiences in the world of country and bluegrass music and Lisa’s own experiences as a bi-racial Korean American. \nTHE PORCH ON WINDY HILL is the heartfelt story of an Appalachian family’s roots and the music that binds them together. When Edgar’s estranged granddaughter\, Mira\, and her boyfriend Beckett\, descend on the old family home\, Edgar must face his past prejudices in order to rekindle their relationship. Featuring traditional bluegrass favorites “Birmingham Jail\,” “Down in the Valley\,” “Blackberry Blossom\,” “Little Log Cabin in the Lane\,” and “Columbus Stockade Blues\,” among many others\, this sharply observed show deepens our understanding of what it means to be an American\, and in a truly American way\, uses music to build bridges and remind us of our shared humanity. \nTHE PORCH ON WINDY HILL opens at the Ivoryton Playhouse on Thursday\, September 23rd and runs through Sunday\, October 17th\, 2021. Performance times are Wednesday and Sunday matinees at 2:00 pm; evening performances are Wednesday and Thursday at 7:30 pm\, Friday and Saturday at 8:00 pm. There will be one Thursday matinee at 2:00 pm on September 23rd. \nSafety is a primary concern.

SUMMARY:Ivoryton Playhouse is Back!
DESCRIPTION:What are the sounds of summer to you? For some\, it is the sound of the waves gently lapping on the shore or the birds calling to each other in the trees but for me it is the sweet melody of the circular saw\, cutting out flats and the hammer pounding the pieces together.
