Phoenix Theatre of Indianapolis is thrilled to announce the first three shows of its final season at 749 Park Avenue!
The 2017-2018 Season will be split into two stages,
facilitating and reflecting the transition of the Phoenix itself as it moves to a new home.
ABOUT THE SHOWS
Fun Home
adapted by Lisa Kron and Jeanine Tesori
from Alison Bechdel's 2006 graphic memoir
September 14-October 22, 2017
Directed by Phoenix Founder Suzanne Fleenor
Winner of 5 2015 Tony Awards®, including Best Musical
In this startlingly candid production, we meet Alison at
three different ages, revealing memories of growing up in a uniquely twisted
household centered around the family funeral home (or “fun home,” as she and
her brothers have named it). Fun Home is a brilliant portrayal of seeing your parents through
grown-up eyes, marked by love, grief, and, ultimately… acceptance.
Halftime With Don
by Ken Weitzman
October 26-November 19, 2017
A National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere
Retired NFL great Don Devers has had more surgeries than
he can remember, experiences violent outbursts, and relies on swarms of Post-It
notes to offset a memory ravaged by a traumatic brain injury. Just when things seem their darkest, a devoted and
desperate fan, Ed Ryan, appears on his doorstep…
A Very Phoenix Xmas 12
By Various Artists
November 24-December 23
A Very Phoenix Xmas is back and better than ever! In
addition to a brand new batch of holiday music and mayhem, we’ve arranged a
visit from the ghost of Phoenix Xmas past! Over the past eleven years, A Very Phoenix Xmas has
brought both naughty and nice to the stage.
