"We're excited about the new season, which we hope will have audiences singing, laughing, crying and dancing along," said Blyth Daylong, executive director of Adelphi PAC.
Highlights for the fall include:

Anthony Rapp's New York Times best-selling memoir becomes a stunning one-man show about grief, hope and triumph. Backed by his band, Rapp movingly intertwines two stories: his experience as part of the original production of RENT and the shared grief when its composer (and Adelphi alum) Jonathan Larson died suddenly - and his beautiful relationship with his mother, who was battling cancer during this turbulent time. Punctuated with songs, this five-star performance (London Times) is "transfixing in its truthfulness, an honest portrait of grief and growing up."
