Embark on a poetic journey with a Free Read of Renascence. Renascence is a theatrical exploration of identity and artistry through the poems of Pulitzer Prize-winning, Edna St. Vincent Millay, featuring music by Carmel Dean (music director for If/Then and American Idiot on Broadway), and a book by Tony nominee Dick Scanlan. With six roles, this piece is exquisitely intimate.
At the age of 19, Millay writes a profoundly powerful poem, “Renascence,” catapulting her to stardom and releasing her from her rural, humble beginnings into a bold, bohemian life. Renascence follows the early years of this artist’s life and invites its performers and audience to sit in this poet’s soul and view humanity and nature as if through her window.
