  Lullaby at Ritz Theater

Lullaby

Ritz Theater
343 13th Avenue NE Minneapolis

In hopes of learning to play lullabies for her infant son, a widowed young mother seeks guitar lessons from a once almost-famous rocker. As the two very different women bond over tricky chords and haunted pasts, a hilarious and moving story of friendship and forgiveness emerges. Lullaby is a new play with alternative rock music that's powerful and absolutely beautiful. In addition to original music from Michael Elyanow, the production features the music of national recording artists Garrison Starr and Chris Dallman.

  Lullaby Reviews

Star Tribune - Somewhat Recommended

"..."This play is best when it sings through the voices and guitars of David Darrow and Annie ­Enneking. He is Craig, the husband still hanging around long after he should have departed; she is Thea, the club singer who befriends Cassie. Their songs, written by four composers, lend a welcome relief from the zigs and zags of Elyanow's story."

Twin Cities Pioneer Press - Recommended

"...Cassie's story ends up having to do with depression and, without spoiling the play's surprises, it features an unusually intelligent and compassionate treatment of the subject, one that grapples with not only how difficult the disease must be for the loved ones of its sufferers but also how agonizing it is for the depressed person who doesn't know how to get help."

How Was The Show - Highly Recommended

"...Undoubtedly, much credit for the power of these performances is due to Cohen's understated direction. The show never feels self-important despite its weighty subject matter, and only in the show's most dire moments does it employ more stylized sound and lighting effects, which makes their use all the more effective. This is all bolstered by Geoffrey Curly's clean and simple set design, allowing for action to move with ease while capturing many small details of lived-in spaces."
