Mickle Maher's Theater Oobleck presents "The Hunchback Variations" at the 59E59 Theaters in New York

Jun 01 - Jul 01 2012

59E59 Theaters
New york, NY

The Hunchback Variations dramatizes a hilarious and melancholy panel discussion between Quasimodo, hunchback of Notre Dame, and Ludwig van Beethoven, composer, on their attempt to create a mysterious sound effect called for in Anton Chekhov’s  The Cherry Orchard.  Playing out over eleven musical scenes, or ‘variations’, the story details the duo’s collaboration – one doomed by their deafness, unpleasant working conditions, and the fact that Beethoven has not fully committed to the process. Based on the play by Mickle Maher. Music by Mark Messing. Starring Larry Adams, and George Andrew Wolff, with Chris Sargent, piano, and Paul Ghica, cello.
