Nutmeg Summer Theater Offers 3 Musicals

Connecticut Repertory Theatre (CRT) will offer three productions in the Nutmeg Summer Series between June 2 and July 17.

Two musicals defined by distinct American eras, Guys & Dolls and My Fair Lady, (with Broadway legend Terrence Mann performing as Professor Henry Higgins) are matched with Seussical, a musical based on the most famous books of Dr. Seuss. All three productions are available as a subscription. Single tickets will go on sale March 14.

Mann who originated the roles of Rum Tum Tugger in Cats, Javert in Les Miserables, and the Beast in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast on Broadway, will lead My Fair Lady's cast which includes CRT favorite and UConn alumni Richard Ruiz as the irrepressibly funny Alfred Dolittle. Broadway star Charlotte D’Amboise, fresh from starring as Roxie Hart in Chicago on Broadway, will choreograph.

In Seussical, Steve Hayes will play Horton the elephant and Bradford Scobie will play the Cat in the Hat.

Evening performances start at 7:30 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays and at 8 on Fridays and Saturdays. Matinee performances start at 2 pm on Saturdays and Sundays. Subscription package options range from $30 to $90. Single ticket prices range from $10 to $39.
