The Waterfront, New York City, 1926…
Anna, a woman with a checkered past, joins her father, Old Chris Christopherson, Captain of a coal barge shuttling between Boston and New York. On a foggy July 4th night, a sailor is pulled from the dark waters of the Atlantic. As the fog clears, Anna’s and
Matt Burke’s eyes meet and their lives are changed forever.
Based on Eugene O’Neill’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Anna Christie, New Girl in Town is a passionate, joyous musical
by Bob Merrill in its first full production in New York City since its 1957 Tony-nominated Broadway run.
