Breaking News - Marc Kudisch Joins Cast of LaChiusa's 'The Highest Yellow'
By: BWW Aug. 26, 2004
The production, with music and lyrics by five-time Tony-nominee Michael John LaChiusa, book by John Strand, and direction by Eric Schaeffer is set to run October 26 – December 12, 2004.
The Highest Yellow tells the tale of a young French intern in Arles in 1888 who admitted a patient suffering from delirium and a self-inflicted knife wound. Dr. Felix Rey was convinced he could cure this unusual patient, a Dutch painter named Vincent van Gogh, of his "nervous condition." Set to an intensely beautiful score, this is the story of a provincial doctor's discovery of art and prostitution, and his unexpected encounter with madness versus genius, love versus obsession, and what we ultimately give up in order to hold on to what we find most precious.
