March 27, 2009 , April 26, 2009 Arena Stage Presents Crowns Hold onto your hat—one of our most popular musicals returns with a new production of Crowns. Come see the crowns worn by the “hat queens” of the South—women whose storied lives are woven into the straw, silk, wool and lace that adorn their heads. With soulful, spiritual and joyful music, they celebrate family and faith, love and loss, seeking (and finding) one’s true identity. Based on the acclaimed book by photographer Michael Cunningham and journalist Craig Marberry, Crowns captures the thrill of self-expression with an intimate look at six women’s lives. Winner of four Helen Hayes Awards, including Best Resident Musical, Crowns is a series of musical portraits that delighted Washington audiences. See it again—or for the first time—but be prepared for the “hattitudes” that will make you laugh and the music that will let your spirit soar.

May 29, 2009 , June 28, 2009 Arena Stage Presents: Sweet Bird of Youth You know Blanche and Stanley, Maggie and Brick, but have you met Alexandra del Lago and Chance Wayne? These indelible characters, from the mind of master playwright Tennessee Williams, take the stage in a steamy and suspenseful tale of lost youth and heartbreak. Chance brings the glamorous yet faded actress Alexandra to his Gulf Coast hometown, hoping that the power of her celebrity, however diminished, might ignite his failed acting career and reunite him with a wronged childhood flame. He has no idea of the dangers that lie in wait for him at the Royal Palms Hotel. Tazewell Thompson (Arena’s M. Butterfly) directs this classic drama, infused with the haunting lyricism so distinctive to Williams and a character that the playwright based on his very own life. Explore the onstage world of Tennessee Williams and see how he changed the landscape of American Theater.
