March 22–April 14 Marie, Dancing Still—A New Musical The 5th Avenue Theatre Directed and choreographed by five-time Tony Award–winner Susan Stroman, this exquisite new musical stars the New York City Ballet's principal dancer Tiler Peck. It's based on the iconic sculpture and famed masterpiece "Little Dancer" by Edgar Degas and the young ballerina, Marie, who inspired it. Part fact, part fiction, and set in the glamorous and dangerous backstage world of the Paris Opera Ballet, it follows a young woman caught between the conflicting demands of life and art, and an artist with one last chance for greatness. Classical ballet is woven into the dramatic narrative of this sumptuous new masterpiece bound for the world stage. X Thursdays, March 28 & April 4; 7:30 pm Friday, March 29; 7:30 pm Sundays, April 7 & 14; 1:30 pm $110–$130 Other performances available upon request April 6–May 26 Urinetown ACT Theatre This Tony Award–winning musical is an outrageous satire set in a fictional future where a terrible 20-year drought has crippled the city's water supplies. The citizens must now use the public pay-per-use amenities owned and operated by Urine Good Company. Citizens who try to circumvent the fee by relieving themselves in the bushes risk being taken away to "Urinetown," a mysterious place where many have been sent but no one ever returns. With fee increases in the pipeline, club programs the poor rise up to make the public amenities free for all to use. Urinetown is a hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love and revolution. X Sundays, May 5 & 19; 2 pm; $55 Other performances upon request May 16 & 17 School of Rock Paramount Theatre Based on the hit film, this hilarious new musical follows Dewey Finn, a wannabe rock star posing as a substitute teacher who turns a class of straight-A students into a guitar- shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band.

Vanity Fair raves, "Fists of all ages shall be pumping!" School of Rock is a New York Times Critics' pick and "an inspiring jolt of energy, joy and mad skillz!" (Entertainment Weekly).
