WHAT

In the rise of corporate control and anti-union sentiment, are you with the people or the growing oligarchy? This is the core-question of the 1937 musical, The Cradle Will Rock. Join TUTA as we explore scenes and songs from the infamous musical about the corruption of our institutions as society is faced with an oppressive corporate class.

In this TUTAlab, we will explore these themes and how they relate to the musical style of the piece. Traditionally performed with only a piano, our actor-musician cast will inject this infamous musical with TUTA style and folk edge.
