Story for The Beast in the Jungle
From legendary composer John Kander (CABARET, CHICAGO), Tony Award-nominated playwright David Thompson (STEEL PIER, AND THE WORLD GOES ‘ROUND), and five-time Tony Award-winning director and choreographer Susan Stroman (THE PRODUCERS, CONTACT), comes a stunningly original new work — fusing dance, drama, and music.
Inspired by Henry James’ classic 1903 novella, THE BEAST IN THE JUNGLE is the story of John Marcher, a man haunted by personal demons, whose great yet unfulfilled love affair with an unforgettable woman spans decades and continents. With a waltz-inspired instrumental score, and dazzling choreography that traverses the worlds of ballet and contemporary dance, this powerful and romantic tale of love and loss reunites the remarkable creative team behind The Vineyard’s acclaimed THE SCOTTSBORO BOYS, and features Tony Award nominee Tony Yazbeck (ON THE TOWN), former American Ballet Theatre principal dancer Irina Dvorovenko (“The Americans”), and Tony Award nominee Peter Friedman (RAGTIME).
