A REBEL PRAYER
ACADEMIC WORLD PREMIERE

Book and Lyrics by Eloise T. Govedare | Music by Aleksandra M. Weil | Directed by Kathleen Wrinn | Music Direction by Brian Cimmet | Choreography by Bradley Stone | Mar 27 - Apr 5 | Opening Night: Mar 28

A searing new musical about protest, loss, and the power of art.

“Look the beast in the eyes, and stare. Say a rebel prayer.” When a politically provocative play costs her father his life, 16-year-old Nikita and her mother are forced to flee Moscow for Domikov, a remote Russian town where tyrannical headmistress Ludmilla Mukhina rules the local school with an iron fist. Mired in grief and desperate to return home, Nikita is visited by the spirits of Pussy Riot, the real-life punk-protest collective imprisoned for their art. But when they offer Nikita one of their masks to carry on her father’s legacy, Nikita is faced with a dangerous choice: submit, or rebel?
