A co-production with Shakespeare <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
Company, Washington, DC<br />
Tony and MacArthur “Genius” Award–winning<br />
director Mary Zimmerman’s breathtaking new<br />
production of Candide was the theatrical event<br />
of the season. In addition to the music of<br />
Leonard Bernstein, Candide featured contributions<br />
from some of the greatest lyricists of the<br />
twentieth century. In this racy musical satire,<br />
naive Candide is banished for romancing the<br />
Baron’s daughter, only to be plagued by a<br />
series of absurd hardships that challenge his<br />
optimistic outlook on life and love.
