There Used To Be a Forest Here


  • The Mezzanine Theatre at the A.R.T./NY Theatres 502 West 53rd Street New York, NY, 10019 United States (map)

Join CO_LAB's Musical Theater Production class as they conjure up an ancient forest in their new original musical There Used To Be a Forest Here. Audiences will take an immersive journey where they will meet talking trees, a slew of woodland creatures and experience the seasons and nature with all their senses. With book, music and lyrics by David Lancelle and Patrick Thompson, this creative and moving new immersive musical explores what it means to care for nature, our friends, and our community.

Directed by Laura Borgwardt and Joseph DePietro
