ALL IS CALM: THE CHRISTMAS TRUCE OF 1914
SEASON ADD-ON
CLOSED JAN 2

By Peter Rothstein
Vocal Arrangements by Erick Lichte and Timothy C. Takach

Directed by Peter Rothstein
Music Direction by Erick Lichte

The Western Front, Christmas, 1914. Out of the violence comes a silence, then a song. A German soldier steps into No Man’s Land singing “Stille Nacht.” Thus begins an extraordinary night of camaraderie, music, peace. A remarkable true story, told in the words and songs of the men who lived it. The production features the talents of the Minneapolis-based cast who starred in the national broadcast and the highly-lauded Off-Broadway run, which earned the 2018 Drama Desk Award for Unique Theatrical Experience and will celebrate a return engagement following a National Broadcast on PBS in 2020.

Theater Latté Da is grateful for the generosity of our Production Sponsor, The Thomas and Julianne Youngren Foundation.

This passionate, timeless, and indelible story of love among young artists in Paris, can stake its claim as the world’s most popular opera. Theater Latté Da brings Peter Rothstein’s innovative, award-winning staging to the intimate Ritz Theater. Lyrical and touchingly beautiful, La Bohème is the definitive depiction of the joys and sorrows of love and loss, and a celebration of art in the face of adversity.

Sung in Italian with English surtitles.

Theater Latté Da is grateful for the generosity of our Production Sponsors, Ron Frey and Steve Thompson.

Lyrics by Susan Birkenhead

Directed and Choreographed by Kelli Foster Warder
Music Supervision by Sanford Moore

Featuring Reese Britts and Andre Shoals

Born to a Creole family in turn-of-the-century New Orleans, Jelly Roll Morton was a classically trained pianist who was fascinated by the ragtime, blues and jazz sounds happening around him. From the back alleys of New Orleans to the dance halls of Chicago and the clubs of New York, the Tony and Drama Desk Award-winning JELLY'S LAST JAM tells the troubled story of the self-proclaimed inventor of jazz with spectacular dance breaks and a smokin’ jazz score.

TWELVE ANGRY MEN: A NEW MUSICAL

Music and Lyrics by Michael Holland 
Book by David Simpatico 

Directed by Peter Rothstein

Featuring Charlie Clark, Bradley Greenwald, and T. Mychael Rambo.

In a small New York City jury room, on "the hottest day of the year," twelve men debate the fate of a young defendant charged with murdering his father. In form, TWELVE ANGRY MEN is a courtroom drama; in purpose, it's a crash course in those passages of the U.S. Constitution that promise defendants a fair trial and the presumption of innocence.
