Burt Bacharach and Steven Sater's NEW YORK ANIMALS Sets Cast, Creatives and NYC Dates

BEDLAM will open their 2015/2016 season with the world premiere of NEW YORK ANIMALS, a new play by two-time Tony Award winner Steven Sater (Spring Awakening) with songs by six-time Grammy Award winner and three-time Academy Award winner Burt Bacharach and Steven Sater, and directed by Eric Tucker.

NEW YORK ANIMALS will begin previews Saturday, November 14, 2015, at 8pm, at New Ohio Theater (154 Christopher Street), open Sunday, November 29, 2015, and end a strictly limited engagement on Sunday, December 20, 2015.

Featuring Debra Barsha, Blanca Camacho, Ramsey Faragallah, Lena Gabrielle, Jo Lampert, Susannah Millonzi, Eric Tucker, David Wearn and Spiff Wiegand, NEW YORK ANIMALS has a set design by John McDermott, costume design by Nikki Delhomme, lighting design by Les Dickert, vocal design by AnnMarie Milazzo, and musical direction by Debra Barsha.

From an East Village diner to a Park Avenue penthouse -- four actors -- twenty-one characters -- love, sex, money, impossible relationships -- just another rainy day in New York City, played to a live new soundtrack by Bacharach and Steven Sater.

A workshop production of NEW YORK ANIMALS directed by John Flynn played Los Angeles' Rogue Machine Theatre in the summer of 2010.

Tickets range from $30 to $49 and are available at www.newohiotheatre.org or www.theatrebedlam.org. NEW YORK ANIMALS plays Tuesdays through Thursdays at 7pm, Fridays and Saturday at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm, and Sundays at 3pm. Please note there will be no performance Thursday, December 17.

Committed to the immediacy of the relationship between the actor and the audience BEDLAM creates theatre in a flexible, raw space and is interested in contemporary reappraisals of the classics, new writing and small-scale musical theatre. The theatre we make always includes the audience. Storytelling is paramount to us. We believe that innovative use of space can collapse aesthetic distance and bring the audience into direct contact with the dangers and delicacies of life.
