Fuse Theatre of CT Presents Jason Robert Brown’s Songs For A New World

New Haven - FUSE Theatre of CT presents Jason Robert Brown’s musical Songs For A New World on November 18, 19 and 20 at Bregamos Theater in New Haven, CT. The first show from Tony-winning composer Brown (The Last Five Years, Bridges of Madison County, Parade, 13, Mr. Saturday Night), Songs is a beloved song-cycle that introduces the audience to a wide variety of characters — from a political prisoner to a scorned socialite, a promising basketball star to the worried mother of a missing soldier — each facing scary and exhilarating crossroads in their life. Featuring a “small, powerhouse adult cast and a driving, exquisitely crafted score,” Songs is the perfect way to end FUSE’s first in-person season.
