THE PIANO TEACHER

Originally booked thru December 9, THE PIANO TEACHER extends to Dec. 23 on the strength of reviews that praise the play and Ms. Franz's remarkable performance as Mrs. K, a lonely, retired piano teacher who reaches out to her former students to find out why they abruptly stopped taking piano lessons years before.

Written by Julia Cho and directed by Kate Whoriskey, THE PIANO TEACHER stars Elizabeth Franz, along with John Boyd and Carmen M. Herlihy.
