Book, Music, & Lyrics by Michael John LaChiusa
Directed by Jack Cummings IIIHello Again is Michael John LaChiusa’s musical based on the 1897 play LaRonde by Arthur Schnitzler. This musical adaptation closely follows Schnitzler’s play, focusing on a series of love affairs among ten characters, but innovatively sets each scene in a different decade of the 20th Century. A non-chronological telling of these love affairs provides a variety of musical style and pastiche ranging from opera to 1970s disco while simultaneously introducing musical and lyrical echoes throughout to tie all the characters and their experiences together. Transport Group’s production is the first New York City revival of this award-winning musical since its premiere off-Broadway in 1993. Book, music and lyrics by Michael John LaChiusa. Directed by Jack Cummings III.
