W.H. Auden

Overview

Affinity Collaborative Theater launches a partnership with The Jerome L. Greene Performance Space with their moving and popular production. Written in 1942 when the world was at war, Auden’s Oratorio is a parable that merges the Biblical and the contemporary with a result that is simultaneously audacious and poetic. Come spend a winter evening with this company of New York’s finest classical actors as they bring to life the story of Christmas as only Auden could tell it.

Affinity Collaborative Theater presents this concert-style dramatic reading, directed by Michael Cumpsty, star of the Tony Award-winning Copenhagen.  Cast members include Michael Cumpsty, Maria Tucci and George Morfogen.
