Be a part of it! Audiences at The Norma Terris Theatre not only see the hottest new shows first but they help shape the next big musical. Tickets go on sale for this intimate theater on Sunday and ticket seekers are encouraged to call early for great seats. Don't miss your chance to experience each of the three fantastic musicals set for the 2015 season at The Norma Terris Theatre in Chester, Connecticut - Goodspeed's home for new musicals. The Box Office will open at 10 a.m. on March 29th to offer single ticket deals for three unique and compelling musicals: The Theory of Relativity, it's about connection; My Paris, it's about Toulouse-Lautrec; and Indian Joe, it's about unexpected family.

The Theory of Relativity, a 2014 Goodspeed Festival favorite, features Music and Lyrics by Neil Bartram and Book by Brian Hill (Goodspeed/Broadway: The Story of My Life). The Theory of Relativity will be directed by Brian Hill.

This unconventional new musical by Drama Desk Award nominees Neil Bartram and Brian Hill is a joyous and moving look at our surprisingly interconnected lives. Through a seemingly unrelated collection of songs, scenes and monologues, The Theory of Relativity introduces a compelling array of characters experiencing the joys and heartbreaks, the liaisons and losses, the inevitability and the wonder of human connection. Whether you're allergic to cats, in love for the first or tenth time, a child of divorce, a germaphobe, or simply a unique individual, you're sure to find yourself in this fresh new musical!

The Theory of Relativity will run May 7 - 31. Supporting sponsors will be Sheridan College and April 30th Entertainment.

My Paris will bring the world and subjects of Toulouse-Lautrec's most famous works to life through Music and Lyrics by Charles Aznavour, Book by Alfred Uhry, and English lyrics and arrangements by Jason Robert Brown (Goodspeed/Broadway: 13). My Paris will be directed and choreographed by Kathleen Marshall (3 TimeTony Award-winner/Goodspeed: Swinging on a Star).

My Paris is a new musical about the life and times of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, the artist who captured the gaiety, color and heartbreak of Montmartre, Le Can-Can, and the world of Le Moulin Rouge. Inhabited by the colorful people he painted, it's the story of a great artist who loved a world that never quite loved him back. Music and lyrics are by legendary French performer Charles Aznavour. The book is by Oscar, Tony and Pulitzer Prize winner, Alfred Uhry, with English lyrics by three time Tony winner, Jason Robert Brown. Tony winning director/choreographer, Kathleen Marshall, brings it all to whirling, spinning and sassy life. C'est magnifique!

My Paris will run July 23 - Aug 16.

Indian Joe tells the compelling tale of a beauty pageant queen and a homeless man. Featuring Music by Elizabeth A. Davis, Luke Holloway, and Jason Michael Webb , Lyrics by Elizabeth A. Davis, and Book by Elizabeth A. Davis and Chris Henry,. Indian Joe will be directed by Kim Weild.

This brand new musical tells the unlikely story of a homeless Native American man and a Texas beauty queen who never should have been friends. He's looking for a fight. She's looking for a cause. As they stumble toward friendship, both ultimately discover that there's more to family than what you see. Inspired by true events, it's a uniquely American story with an Americana beat. You'll never forget Indian Joe.

Indian Joe will close this full season with a run October 22 - November 15, 2015 at The Norma Terris Theatre in Chester, Conn.
