“Could she be the dancer in the mirror?”
Tony Award winner Sonya Tayeh (Gatsby at A.R.T., Moulin Rouge! The Musical on Broadway) returns to the A.R.T. to bring a bold new musical adaptation of the 2010 Academy Award-nominated psychological thriller Black Swan to life on stage. As driven ballerina Nina fights for the lead role in Swan Lake, pressure increases and boundaries blur, and she begins to unravel. This haunting exploration of ambition, rivalry, and the cost of perfection features a book by Guggenheim Fellow Jen Silverman (The Roommate, Collective Rage: A Play in 5 Betties) and a score by Obie Award winner Dave Malloy (Moby-Dick, The Great Comet, and others).
