Season 2001-2002:

Blood Moon

by Nicholas Kazan

5/31/01-6/17/01

Blood Moon is a compelling drama about how we witness crimes, more specifically, rape. The story becomes controversial when one woman sloughs off her victim status to become a dark avenging angel.

“The Mosaic Theatre Company is making an auspicious, stunning entrance on the theater scene, with a production of Blood Moon.”--ITHACA TIMES

An Italian American Reconciliation
by John Patrick Shanley

9/13/01-9/30/01

A romantic comedy set in Little Italy, New York that explores the highs and lows of male/female relationships.

“Bathed in the same moonlit madness that gave his Moonstruck its savor and flavor...A lovely play.”--NY POST

Someone Who'll Watch Over Me
by Frank McGuinness

12/6/01-12/23/01

Three innocent men are taken hostage and struggle for their freedom. This is an intense combination of comedy and drama that should not be missed.

“As artists, we must confront the date of September 11th in hopes of understanding this tragedy. This play mirrors exactly what is happening today. It shows a resiliency of the human spirit under the absolute worst of conditions and it's time to show the world that we're not afraid."--RICHARD JAY SIMON

Cobb
by Lee Blessing

1/24/02-2/10/02

This fascinating play examines the controversial life of one of the greatest baseball figures in the 20^th century.

“Cobb is a diamond gem that should score big...Blessing delves skillfully--and even humorously into what made the man so competitive and contentious.”--VARIETY

Durang, Durang
by Christopher Durang

3/14/02-3/31/02

A hilarious evening of six one-act’s, each spoofing American life and theater.

“With the help of Mr. Durang, the fine art of parody has returned to theater in a production you can sink teeth and mind into, while also laughing like an idiot.”--NY TIMES

Titanic
the musical

4/24-5/4

Mosaic Theatre collaborates with American Heritage to tell the story of the “gem of the sea.”

“The greatest American Musical to have been written in 15 years. A triumph! A score which soars, a masterpiece.”—THE SPECTATOR (LONDON)
