Leaves

America through the eyes of
Whitman and the ensemble

co-conceived and directed by
Laura Leffler-McCabe & Bryan Grosso

Leaves is an exploration of the American spirit. Using prolific American poet Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass as source material, the ensemble will define, destroy, scrutinize and applaud who Americans are at this moment in history. War and peace, love and hurt, right and left, poetry and prose, past and future: it’s the story of our nation.  The script has been created in workshops with actors, writers and composers.  A world-premiere new work!

Featuring Amber Davis • Russ Dugger • Emily Dussault • Bryan Grosso • Laura Leffler-McCabe • Katharine Moeller
Written by the ensemble, along with Thomas Borger and Tanner Curl
Featuring live music by Candace Bilyk and Ben Mattson
