FNT presents... Forgottonia, a new musical

Friday, January 8 — Sunday, January 31Fri, Jan 8 — Sun, Jan 31

YouTube

A farcical drama about falling in love, coming of age, and seceding from the United States. It follows two siblings through two interwoven, parallel stories set in Colchester, Illinois, a town that was the at the center of a real-life secessionist movement in the late-60’s when the government reneged on a promise to build a highway-- leaving Colchester an island in the corn and its people just as forgotten. Forgottonia grapples with the fact that sometimes when we fight for our home, we lose. Then what? How do we cope? And how do we come back once we leave? Come find yourself in Forgottonia, opening January 8 at the .ZACK.

FNT presents... Assassins

FNT presents... Assassins

Thursday, April 1 — Sunday, April 18Thu, Apr 1 — Sun, Apr 18

.ZACK, 3224 Locust St., St. Louis, MO

Fly North Theatricals presents a new take on Sondheim and Weidman's classic where our nations' most notorious assassins gather on stage to violently pursue a twisted American Dream.

A multiple Tony Award-winning theatrical tour-de-force, Assassins combines Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, Assassins is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written.

Assassins lays bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried to assassinate the President of the United States, in a one-act historical "revusical" that explores the dark side of the American experience. From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, writers, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman, bend the rules of time and space, taking us on a nightmarish roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from different historical periods meet, interact and inspire each other to harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream.

FNT presents... Caroline, Or Change

FNT presents... Caroline, Or Change

Friday, July 2 — Sunday, July 25Fri, Jul 2 — Sun, Jul 25

.ZACK, 3224 Locust St., St. Louis, MO

Set in Lake Charles, LA in 1963, Caroline, Or Change is a provocative story about political change, social change, ...and pocket change. In this Tony-nominated musical, Tesori blends blues, gospel, and traditional Jewish melodies which provide a breathtaking medium for Kushner’s very personal and riveting story telling. It follows the Gellman family and their African-American maid, Caroline Thibedoux who is drifting through life as an aging mother of four. Set largely in the Gellman’s basement laundry room, a bond between Caroline and the Gellman’s young son Noah forms, while outside, some of the largest social advancements in American history are happening-- and change is knocking on the basement door. Featuring one of the strongest female roles in musical theatre history-- Caroline-- and her namesake musical -- will leave audiences breathless. Join us 16 feet below sea level for Caroline or Change, opening July 2, 2021.
