A legendary Wisconsin artist. A soaring new play. A cello score that absolutely understood the assignment.

Our 26/27 season kicks off with the world premiere of MAYBE WE'LL FLY!

Propelled by an evocative score for solo cello as well as a contemporary approach to movement from award-winning director Elizabeth Margolius, MAYBE WE’LL FLY will captivate and inspire as it celebrates outsiders everywhere.
