We are thrilled to announce our 2026-2027 Season of Love. Presenting a classic, Wedekind’s Spring Awakening, a Children's Tragedy, and our most ambitious project yet: We Can’t Help Ourselves, an original musical about modern love and eternal loss. In addition to our two productions, there will be workshops, carnivals, parties, divine visitations, and more, so stay tuned. We’ll see you in the theater.

Spring Awakening, a Children’s Tragedy

By Frank Wedekind

In a new translation by Daniel Egger

Adapted and directed by Leo Egger

February 12th - 27th, 2027

At JACK, 20 Putnam Ave, Brooklyn

Frank Wedekind’s racy 1891 drama about the confusions and horrors of puberty was shut down after just two shows. In a Germany frigid with denial, teenagers face their budding sexuality while the adults around them act like children.

We Can’t Help Ourselves

Music and Lyrics by Charlie Mayhew

Book and Story by Charlie Mayhew and Leo Egger

June 7th - 26th, 2027

At the West End Theater, 263 W 86th St

Always the confidant, never the crush, Larry finally gets his shot at love, and he‘ll lie to everybody—including himself—to keep it. We Can't Help Ourselves is a new musical about love, denial, and the distractions that keep us from facing the terrible truth we all share. It's never been worse to be young and single. And yet, somehow, we can't help ourselves.
