Arkádina is a famous—but fading—actress. She and her lover, Trigórin, a well-known author, arrive at her brother Sórin’s country estate for the summer, just as son Konstantín is staging an experimental new play he’s written and directed, starring his girlfriend, Nína. Konstantín wants to find “new forms of theater,” but Arkádina is far more traditional—and not about to let anyone forget that she’s the star in the family. Nína is soon enthralled by Arkádina, Trigórin and the idea of fame. She a love affair with Trigórin—and the ensuing jealousies and anger—that will eventually ruin lives.

A musical
From the book by Studs Terkel. Adapted by Stephen Schwartz and Nina Faso. With additional
contributions by Gordon Greenberg
Based on Studs Terkel’s best-selling book, Working paints a vivid portrait of the American workers that are so often taken for granted. Nominated for six Tony Awards, this classic has been updated for the modern age, featuring new songs by Tony Award-winning Lin-Manuel Miranda, as well as favorites by Stephen Schwartz, Craig Carnelia and James Taylor. This new version of Working is a musical exploration of twenty-six people from all walks of life. Its strength is in the core truths that transcend specific professions: how people’s relationships to their work ultimately reveal key aspects of their humanity, regardless of the trappings of the job itself.
WORKING-2012 REVISED VERSION
