Opening Night at LG Arts Center

'Opening Night" is the Ivo van Hoves stage version of the 1977 John Cassavetes movie about a Broadway-bound play in crisis. It tells the story of a famous actress, Myrtle, starring in a play in which her character must come to terms with aging. After an avid fan/autograph-seeker is killed, the actress begins a downward personal spiral, confronting her own issues of mortality. Despite insincere support from her colleagues in the production, the actress works her way back from her crisis of the soul. Since its premiere in 2006 in Amsterdam, this play has been performed for enthusiastic audiences in world's major cities to much critical acclaim.
