Times Description

This excellent new musical from the Antaeus company arranges Mark Twain's "The Loves of Alonzo Fitz Clarence and Rosannah Ethelton" and Herman Melville's "Bartleby, the Scrivener" into a surprisingly cohesive double bill about love and despair in 19th century America. Featuring songs by Jan Powell and Ken Stone, the show conjoins Twain's American dream with Melville's American nightmare — call it a bipolar musical, in the best sense of the term.
