Dramaturge

Director

American Conservatory Theater Artistic Director Emerita Carey Perloff, who helmed last season’s wildly successful production of Waste, returns to helm the Russian playwright’s final work. This classic is set at the turn of the 20th century, where an aristocratic matriarch returns home to her family’s estate, which has fallen into debt. The house and beautiful cherry orchard are set to be auctioned off while the family resists solutions, desperate to preserve their way of life and ignore the changing times.

Val Caniparoli, an American choreographer known for his captivating work with the San Francisco Ballet, was inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic horror novella The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, a story that has fascinated him since childhood.

Jekyll & Hyde On Tour

National Arts Centre

The latest masterpiece and most personal play from Tom Stoppard, Leopoldstadt is a stirring and epic story of love, family, and enduring bravery. In Vienna, the heart of European culture at the rise of the 20th century, two brothers have conflicting visions of prosperity – both for their family and the Jewish people – a tension that will echo through the generations that follow.

Leopoldstadt

The Huntington Theatre

Renowned dramatist Tom Stoppard’s most personal, sweeping masterwork traces one Jewish family through sixty years of Viennese history — from the 19th century’s glittering promise to the Holocaust’s shattering aftermath. Winner of the Tony and Olivier Awards for Best Play, Leopoldstadt moves with the rhythm of memory itself: vibrant, then fractured, then hauntingly still. Directed by Stoppard’s long-time collaborator Carey Perloff in close partnership with Stoppard before his death, this monumental drama paints a deeply human portrait of what families carry, what they lose, and what they must fight to remember.
