About the Show

April 18-21, 2024

by Marc Blitzstein; Directed by Christina Baldwin; Puppets by Lizz Windnagel; Music Direction by Marco Real d’Arbelles

Marc Blitzstein's 1937 opera The Cradle Will Rock is a satirical comedy on the corruption of capitalism and corporate greed lined up against people’s rights and the working class of America. AOT’s production will fuse shadow puppetry and live music theater performance to tell this exuberant, funny, and zesty tale of our time.

“Set against the background of the prostitution of another kind -- the sell-out of one’s profession, one’s talents, one’s dignity, and integrity at the hands of big business or the powers that be.” Marc Blitzstein.

Runtime: 90 minutes with no intermission.

Cast: Abilene Olson, Benjamin Dutcher, Corissa Bussian, Gary Briggle, Isa Condo-Olvera, KrisAnne Weiss, Lizz Windnagel, Maurice Fields III, Tony Potts.
