Martha Clarke’s Chéri

The tragic tale of forbidden love in 1920s Paris premiered at New York City’s Signature Theatre this winter. “Entrancingly luminous and gorgeous dance,” proclaimed The New York Times. “A voluptuous dream,” wrote the Star Ledger critic. “A whirl of sensuality and grace,” cheered the Daily News. Chéri is a fusion of theater, live music, and dance, featuring Academy and Golden Globe Award nominee and Obie Award winner Amy Irving and dramatic text by playwright Tina Howe, the Tony Award-winning writer of Painting Churches and Coastal Disturbances.
