About the play: Production of CHOSEN ONE, a haunting new musical exploring the extraordinary power of art, the brutality of persecution, and the sacrifices we make for those we love. Set against the turbulent backdrop of revolutionary Russia and the rise of Soviet oppression, CHOSEN ONE follows Gael Pfeiffer, a gifted Romani artist whose extraordinary voice becomes a symbol of hope for a nation in turmoil.
