With over 30 shows opening this month on DC area stages, there is a buffet of choices for local theatre goers and visitors to our nation's capital, from a Tom Kitt musical, to a bloody barber pie-filled Sondheim feast, to children's classics adapted for the stage, to American Idol contestants with slicked back hair, to a psycho woman and her schizo sister, to Commedia dell'Arte. There's something for everyone, so come visit the DC area, and have a monumental time in our theatres!

The Landless Theatre Company brings Maury Yeston and Arthur Kopit’s award winning musical Nine to Washington, DC in the first local production since the Tony Award winning Broadway revival in 2003. The production will be presented on the stage of the beautiful, newly renovated GALA Hispanic Theatre at Tivoli in Washington’s Columbia Heights, which opened its’ doors in January. The musical, based on Fellini’s film, 8 ½, features an almost all-female cast and a brilliant score including “Unusual Way,” “My Husband Makes Movies,” and “Simple.” Landless’ unique production will combine music, theatre, and film in tribute to Fellini’s influence.
