Women’s Night at the Theatre: Everything Beautiful Happens at Night
April 24 @ 7:00 pm – 9:30 pm
Join Island City Stage for a special Wilton Women’s Week reception and live stage presentation of “Everything Beautiful Happens at Night”, a new play by Ted Malawer (Red, White, & Royal Blue).
Ezra is a closeted children’s book author. Nancy is his fiercely loyal editor. Their creative partnership has shaped stories that delight generations. But when writer’s block pushes Ezra far past deadlines to deliver his latest book, a new voice enters the conversation and begins to change Ezra’s life, inspiring a controversial ending to Chipmunk and Squirrel, and testing the limits of his friendship with Nancy.
Directed by Carbonell and Silver Palm Award winner, Bruce Linser, utilizing stunning illustrations by multi-award-winning artist Bong Redila, and featuring Silver Palm Award winner Laura Turnbull, Carbonell Award nominated Christopher Dreeson, and Aidan Paul, “Everything Beautiful Happens at Night” is a tender, funny, and moving story about the life you have, the life you want, and who stays when the world gets quiet.
