Aurora Theatre Producing Artistic Director Anthony Rodriguez talks about the decision to open the 17th season with Sweet Charity, “We traditionally open the season with a classic Broadway musical at Aurora. Sean Daniels contacted me with this innovative chamber approach to Sweet Charity that would be performed by a cast of just nine people. The more he talked about the ingenious way we could present the show, the more Ann-Carol and I could not resist. Listening to his thoughtful ideas about the play, I knew we had to do the show. One interesting example is to show the pattern of people essentially dating the same ‘type,' Charity’s love interests will all be played by the same actor. Sean has been a great asset to Aurora already and has consulted on new play projects over the last few years. I have been looking for an opportunity to bring him on board. Later this season, he will be back, to direct the new comedy Bob, too.”
