The Alliance Theatre is pleased to announce the cast and creative team behind its upcoming world premiere musical, TUCK EVERLASTING. Based on the beloved best-selling novel by Natalie Babbitt, TUCK EVERLASTING is an exhilarating story about everlasting love, never-ending life, and discovering what it means to truly feel alive.
The TUCK EVERLASTING creative team is led by Tony Award winning director and choreographer Casey Nicholaw (The Book of Mormon, Aladdin, The Drowsy Chaperone, Spamalot). Leading the cast in the role of Winnie Foster is ten-year-old Atlanta-based actor Sarah Charles Lewis. Lewis has been performing in and around Atlanta since the age of five, most recently as the title character in Atlanta Lyric Theatre’s production of Annie. Joining the cast are Tony Award® Nominee Carolee Carmello (Scandalous, Parade) as Ma Tuck, Andrew Keenan-Bolger (Newsies The Musical) as Jesse Tuck, Robert Lenzi (South Pacific) as Miles Tuck, Tony Award® Nominee Terrence Mann (Pippin, Beauty and the Beast) as the Man in the Yellow Suit, and Michael Park (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof) as Pa Tuck.
Book-writer Claudia Shear added:
“Tuck Everlasting, like all great tales of immortality, both tempts and frightens us. What makes it beloved is its romantic heart – what makes it endure is the indefinable and timeless shiver of a magical story that makes us believe.”
Performances of TUCK EVERLASTING are January 21 – February 22, 2015. Opening night is February 4, 2015.
