Theatre 167 will present Singing Beach, the latest work by renowned playwright Tina Howe, will have its world premiere at HERE Mainstage (HERE Arts Center, 145 Sixth Avenue) beginning Saturday, July 22, 2017.

This exciting world premiere will play a strictly limited engagement through Saturday, August 12.

An Obie Award Winner, Tony nominee, and two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist, Ms. Howe is best known for her plays Museum, The Art of Dining, Pride's Crossing, Painting Churches and Costal Disturbances, which introduced Tim Daly and Anette Benning to Broadway audiences. Singing Beach is her first full-length play in eight years.

As a Category 4 hurricane approaches Singing Beach, the Sleeper clan is struggling with storms of its own. A riveting new drama, Singing Beach deals with climate change, aging, and the power of imagination to change the world.

Directed by Ari Laura Kreith, Singing Beach will feature Erin Beirnard* (End of
Summer, Metropolitan Playhouse), Devin Haqq* (Richard III, Epic Theatre Ensemble), Jackson Demott Hill* (Finding Neverland, Broadway), John P. Keller* (Nicholas Nickleby, Orlando Shakespeare), Tuck Milligan* (The Kentucky Cycle, Kennedy Center-Helen Hayes Award, Broadway), Elodie Morss (Chess, White Plains Performing Arts Center), and Naren Weiss* (Guards at the Taj, Geffen Playhouse).

The production will also feature scenic design by Jen Price Fick, lighting design by Matthew Fick, costume design by Caroline Spitzer, prop design by Kelly Pooler, and sound design by Emily Auciello.

Tickets for Singing Beach start at $30 are available from Ovationtix by phone at 866-811-4111. Performances will take place Wednesdays through Saturdays at 8:30pm and Sundays at 4:00pm.
