To Tree

Following their sold-out runs of Reefer Madness! The Musical (four-time BroadwayWorld.com Award nominee including Best Revival of a Musical Non-Equity), The Brown Paper Box Co. is thrilled to present this two-man world premiere.

Synopsis: Former college buddies Peter and Julian have fallen out of touch several years after graduation. When Peter learns that Julian has decided to renounce his existence in favor of becoming a tree, he finds himself unexpectedly reunited with his old friend - and involved in a discussion that forces him to reexamine all he thought he knew about biology, relationships, and the nature of humanity. Simultaneously hilarious, thought-provoking, and absurd, the Brown Paper Box Co. is proud to present this world premiere by award-winning playwright and screenwriter, Aaron Golden (FALLING OVERNIGHT).

Aaron Golden's TO TREE stars Christopher Hart (Peter) and Lance Newton (Julian) and features the design talents of M. William Panek* (Director), Ian James Anthony* (Scenic Design), Eric Phillips (Lighting Design), Michelle Kritselis* (Dramaturg), James Riley (Original Score), and Charlie Sheets (Poster Design).
