DEAR WORLD
freeFall Theatre
music and lyrics by Jerry Herman
book by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee
based on The Madwoman of Chaillot by Jean Giraudoux
as adapted by Maurice Valency new version by David Thompson
Directed by Eric Davis
The Countess Aurelia lives in the basement of a quaint bistro in 1940s Paris, driven mad, reminiscing about her lost love. When oil is discovered beneath the streets of Paris, a group of corporate presidents hatch a scheme to blow up the bistro and get at it. The Countess rallies the denizens of the Paris fringe to foil their plot and exert a fitting punishment on the greedy execs. Can beauty, nature, and art prevail against greed and ravenous industry? Will the doves ever return to Paris?
Jerry Herman, Jerome Lawrence, and Robert E. Lee reimagine Giraudoux’s The Madwoman of Chaillot as a musical with the kind of decadent and ebullient score that is Herman’s trademark.
