I Wish: The Roles That Could Have Been
November 10, 2024
Everyone has dreams that they fear will pass them by. For actors, those come in the shape and form of roles—whether they’ve outgrown that child-star turn, or are the soprano never being considered for the baritone lead. No matter who you are, everyone has a song in their heart that they’ll likely never get to see come to fruition center stage, with a crowd, and in lights.
Until tonight.
I Wish: The Roles That Could Have Been — is more than just a chance for an audience to bear witness to actors dreams manifesting. Our world and community have been viscerally reminded that life is precious, and that theatre has the possibility to do extraordinary things—it can heal, educate, celebrate and amplify. As we welcome you back to 54 Below, I Wish is also about including wishes for a welcoming, imaginative, equitable, and celebratory vision and revision of the stage!
Join us for a night of celebration, as you see and hear your favorite performers in ways you’d never imagine.
