Based on the short story "The Masters" by Ursula K. Le Guin

Winner of the Richard Rodgers Award. The world as we know it is no more. In its place, a society exists where math, science and the thirst for the unknown have been forbidden by the government and forgotten by the populace. This award-winning music-theater piece tells the story of Ganil, a young woman whose longing for knowledge leads her on a passionate journey of discovery. With an eclectic score featuring lush choral singing and contemporary rhythms, The Hidden Sky is a mythical tale of aspiration, awakening, and the indomitable human spirit.

All performances will take place at the West End Theatre, 263 West 86th Street (between Broadway and West End Avenue). Tickets to all shows are $15 and can be purchased at the door, by calling 212-352-3101, or by visiting www.ProspectTheater.org (Please note that service charges will apply for all phone and online orders.)
