A performance based on the respected social history work by Studs Terkel, arguably one of the most powerful, original, and human writers of the 20th century. It is an exploration of the meaning of work for different people under different circumstances and how our work shapes who we are. It gives a spotlight to those who are often overlooked in the workforce and explores the idea that work can be difficult but still provides meaning for workers. The musical, originally conceived and written by Stephen Schwartz, has since been updated and includes additional material from Lin-Manuel Miranda.
Venue: Unicorn Theatre
