Invitation

If/Then, presented by Blumenthal Performing Arts from July 19 – July 24, is a contemporary Broadway musical about living in New York today – and all the possibilities of tomorrow. Its songs and deeply moving story by the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning creators of Next to Normal follow one woman’s two possible life paths, painting a portrait of the lives we lead, as well as the lives we might have led.

The New York Post has already gushed that the show is a “fascinating, ambitious, and original new musical,” so there’s no reason to miss out while it’s in town.

Our take (Cristina)

I was lucky enough to see this show with Idina Menzel in the original cast, and wow – expect some powerhouse ballads. Jackie Burns killed it as Elphaba in Wicked so I can’t wait to see her vocals in this show. Actor Anthony Rapp is a part of the touring cast too – fans of Rent, A Beautiful Mind (and throwback, Adventures in Babysitting) will love seeing his performance as Luke.
