The Bartley and Maricela Madden Theatre we will be transformed into an intimate cabaret room with a live orchestra and a cast of talented actors performing a concert version of the Tony Award® winning musical Nine. From Broadway to Film and back to Live Theatre, Nine, is based on Federico Fellini's semi-autobiographical film 8½. The famous Italian film director, Guido Contini, has turned forty and faces double crises: he must shoot a film for which he can't write the script, and his wife may leave him if he can't pay more attention to the marriage. Guido's mind becomes increasingly preoccupied with his Guilty Pleasures, fantasy and reality become inextricably intertwined by the power of women answering the question, "What are women to men?"

A talented ensemble of actors makes up the cast:
