Tony Award winner Mayer (Spring Awakening) directed the national tour of Kushner's Angels in America in the 1990s. Opening night is June 5. The run continues to July 10.

Subscriptions for Signature's 20th-anniversary Tony Kushner season are sold out. Online sales for single tickets for The Illusion began at signaturetheatre.org starting April 1.

Here's how Signature characterizes the play: "A lawyer, facing mortality, desperate to find the son he drove away years before, travels in the dead of night to a mysterious cave. There he engages the services of a wizard, who conjures up visions of the romantic, adventurous, perilous life the lawyer's son has been living since his father expelled him from home. The Illusion, freely adapted from Pierre Corneille's L'Illusion Comique, is Kushner's most joyfully theatrical play, a wildly entertaining tale of passion and regret, of love, disillusionment and magic."

The Illusion will feature scenic design by Christine Jones, costume design by Susan Hilferty, lighting design by Kevin Adams, sound design by Bray Poor and fight direction by Rick Sordelet. Production stage manager is Paul J. Smith.

Through The Signature Ticket Initiative, which seeks to make great theatre accessible to the broadest possible audience, all regularly priced single tickets ($75) during the initial announced run are underwritten and will be available for $20. The Signature Ticket Initiative is made possible by the lead sponsorship of Time Warner Inc. Generous support for The Signature Ticket Initiative is provided by Margot Adams, in memory of Mason Adams.
