RCNJ Theater Presents: Nine: The Musical

April 18 @ 8:00 pm - 10:30 pm

Book by Arthur Kopit, Music and Lyrics by Maury Yeston
Directed by Lester Mayers

The spectacular musical adaptation of Fellini’s 8½ features one man and the dozens of muses in his life. Celebrated but impetuous film director Guido Contini, succumbing to the pressures of filming his latest film epic, suffers a midlife crisis. One by one, figures from his past and present– including his mother, his wife, his mistress, and his leading lady – haunt, instruct, scold, seduce and encourage him until he finally learns to grow up.

NINE contains mature language and adult themes, including depictions of desire, infidelity, suicide, and emotional conflict. The production includes the presence of a prop firearm, theatrical haze, and moments of heightened intimacy. Audience discretion is advised.

This production uses haze and strobe lighting.
