A small-town teacher's life unravels in a new musical about coaching a misfit student.
The world-premiere of a new musical, which explores the challenge of staying true to oneself in a divided world. All the World’s a Stage tells the story of a small-town math teacher who reluctantly agrees to coach a misfit student for the 1996 State Thespian Competition. As his life becomes more complicated by his outspoken new boyfriend and the devout school secretary, the teacher struggles to keep his carefully balanced world intact.
This heartwarming and humorous musical marks the result of a three-year collaboration between Keen Company’s Artistic Director Jonathan Silverstein and Adam Gwon, who previously worked together on the acclaimed revival of Ordinary Days—nominated for a 2019 Drama League Award for Outstanding Revival of a Musical.
