JACK OF HEARTS, MASTER OF NONE
January 19th - February 4th 2017
@HERE ARTS CENTER (145 6th Ave, New York, NY)
A new operetta - seen through the lens of the seven deadly sins - about a gambler's obsession with perfection and the women who shaped his life.
“Hit me
I need love
Hit me
Give me a break
Hit me
I’ll play this game until I’ve taken all that I can take...”
ABOUT THE SHOW
2016 New York Innovative Theatre Award-Nominated Composer/Lyricist team Christian De Gré & Joseph Reese Anderson ("FATTY FATTY NO FRIENDS" and "WHISKEY PANTS: THE MAYOR OF WILLIAMSBURG") once again team up with MIND THE ART ENTERTAINMENT to present the world premiere of a modern operetta about a chronic gambler, his obsessive search for perfection, and the seven women who shaped his life. Seen through the lens of the seven deadly sins and spanning over forty years, this is a twisted take on the all-too-familiar tale of a Jack of all hearts and a master of none.
