Sycamore Trees Starts Next Door

Exciting things are happening across the hall from us at Signature. Tomorrow Signature begins performances in the Max Theatre of Ricky Ian Gordon's world premiere of "Sycamore Trees." If what we hear on the monitors backstage is any indication the Signature audiences are in for a really remarkable evening in the theatre. And the cast is pretty remarkable, including Signature favorites Mark Kudisch (Witches of Eastwick & Highest Yellow) and Judy Kuhn (Highest Yellow and the Kennedy Center's Passion.) Check out Signature's website for more information if you don't have tickets.

Their gay-straight divide cannot dilute their shared passion for the stage. While Matthew rules the roost at Signature, James's musical, Glory Days, made it to Broadway. And, more or less, it all started years ago in a suburban D.C. basement, with the 6-year-old twin tots discovering their innate theater legs through Broadway soundtracks, at the same time other kids their age were probably playing in mud or destroying Barbie dolls.
