POPE JOAN January 16, 2009

POPE JOAN opens January 16th, 2009. Passion, piety, and the enticement of power sparks a once in a lifetime historic event. Being brought to life by the original producer of HAIR on Broadway, this musical extravaganza unleashes one of the most controversial stories in the history of mankind. During a time marked by social chaos and political turmoil an unexpected pundit ascends the hierarchy of the most powerful regime in the world. This innovative and dramatic musical account of the historic and ecclesiastical circumstances, which may have given a young girl access to the papacy, brings century old scandals to life once more. This world premiere musical is being launched in Los Angeles and is bound to be one of the most talked about productions of the year. A cast of 25 professionals, an award winning team, and a live six-piece orchestra create this stunning premiere, for a limited run only, at the Stella Adler Theatre in Hollywood.
