Asolo Repertory Theatre has announced its 2019-20 season.
Asolo Rep's season kicks off in November with a re-imagined production of the Rodgers & Hammerstein Tony Award-winning masterpiece, The Sound of Music, directed and choreographed by Josh Rhodes. The winter repertory season opens in January with Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, directed by Peter Amster and newly adapted by two-time Tony Award-nominee Ken Ludwig. The rep season continues with the critically acclaimed 2018 Broadway hit The Lifespan of a Fact, directed by Asolo Rep Associate Artistic Director Celine Rosenthal. The third and final of the winter repertory plays is Lucille Lortel Award-winner George Brant's Into the Breeches, directed by Cleveland Play House Artistic Director Laura Kepley. Asolo Rep will then present Laura Yee's smart, feisty and funny The Great Leap in March.

In April, Asolo Rep proudly presents the world premiere of Knoxville. This musical adaptation of James Agee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel A Death in the Family will feature lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, music by Stephen Flaherty and will be directed by Frank Galati, reuniting the Tony Award-winning creative team behind Ragtime.

The season continues in April with Hood: A Robin Hood Musical Adventure , seeing the madcap new musical adventure of a legendary tale with a 21st century twist. And in June, Asolo Rep continues its family programming initiative with an innovative production of Snow White.
