Theater: "Nine"

"Nine" is a musical theater production performed by Colorado College students and directed by Vocal Instructor Ann Brink. The story is based on an Italian play by Mario Fratti, inspired by Federico Fellini’s autobiographical film "8½." It focuses on Film Director Guido Contini, who is savoring his most recent (and greatest) success but facing his 40th birthday and a midlife crisis that is blocking his creative impulses and entangling him in a web of romantic difficulties in early-1960s Venice. Arthur Kopit wrote the book and Maury Yeston created the music and lyrics. The original Broadway production, which starred Raul Julia, opened in 1982 and ran for 729 performances. The musical won five Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Sponsored by the Colorado College music department.
