Having safely escaped Russia during the 1917 revolution, beloved composer and pianist Sergei Rachmaninoff performed all over the world before eventually making his home in sunny Beverly Hills. Privately longing for the Russia that he knew and loved as a young man, one memory in particular continues to haunt him—the last time he saw the Tsar. Hershey Felder's newest musical play will feature the virtuoso actor/pianist in the role of Rachmaninoff alongside British-Italian actor Jonathan Silvestri in the role of Nicholas II. Featuring the composer’s most beloved works, Rachmaninoff and the Tsar promises to be another mystical musical journey in the inimitable Hershey Felder style that audiences have come to know and love. - Less

Leopoldstadt
Written by Tom Stoppard
Directed by Carey Perloff
June 4 – July 19, 2026

At the dawn of the 20th century, Vienna is the heart of European culture. While an extended family gathers in the elegant Merz home for the holidays, two brothers-in-law passionately debate their conflicting visions for the future of their family and the Jewish people––a tension that will echo through the generations that follow. Traversing decades of joy and strife, from 1899 to 1955, the latest masterpiece and most personal play from Tom Stoppard follows one family’s reckoning with a past it cannot escape and a future it cannot control. Carey Perloff, acclaimed director and frequent Stoppard collaborator, directs this stirring and epic story of love, betrayal, family, and enduring bravery. - Less
