Six teenagers meet at an arts summer camp in the 1970s and form a lifelong bond over their shared dream of leading creative and inspiring lives. Decades later in New York City, that bond remains powerful, but so much else has changed. Featuring music and lyrics by Grammy Award-winning and Emmy and Tony Award-nominated artist Sara Bareilles (Waitress), a book by The New York Times best-selling novelist Meg Wolitzer and Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-nominated playwright Sarah Ruhl (Eurydice, In the Next Room (or the Vibrator Play)), and direction by Tony Award-winner Michael Arden (Parade, Maybe Happy Ending), The Interestings explores friendship, love, envy, class, art, money, and power — and how all of it can shift and tilt precipitously over the course of a life.
