ODURep & ODU Opera, in collaboration with Warehouse of Theatre, present Working, A Musical, celebrating the essential worker.
Working, nominated for six Tony Awards, paints a vivid portrait of the people the world too often takes for granted. Working is a musical exploration of people from all walks of life; by exploring these 'invisible' professions we can find some core truths about humanity, through the ways each person relates to their work.
Working is FREE, LIVE, and OUTDOORS, at Brock Commons - 1040 W 47th St, at the north end of Monarch Way. There are both Drive-In and Walk-In spots available for each performance.
• Performances are Thurs-Sun, April 15-18, at 8pm each night.
• To attend, you must reserve a free ticket IN ADVANCE: http://ODUArtsTix.com
