Jennifer Ward-Lealand Directs Old Wicked Songs
4-12 June 2004; Herald Theatre (Aotea Center)




Jennifer Ward-Lealand will direct Paul Barrett and Jeremy Brennan in Old Wicked Songs, a Pulitzer Prize nominated drama set in Vienna in 1986 about an American piano prodigy and his relationship with an elderly vocal teacher. It is described on the Heart of Auckland City website as "a virtuoso piece for two men who must both act their roles with passion and intensity, and sing and play piano with great skill"; Jennifer says it is a "beautiful piece featuring live performances of Schumann's Dichterliebe song cycle".
