Crossing Brooklyn features music by Jenny Giering and book and lyrics by Laura Harrington. Set in New York City in 2002, the musical, according to press notes, "tells the story of Des and AJ, young, idealistic public school teachers bent on changing the world, one kid at a time. Life is full of promise and endless possibility until Des begins to unravel under the weight of her fears, ignited that fateful September day. Splitting apart under the strain, Des and AJ struggle to find their way back to each other." This production will use original multimedia film pieces by filmmaker Brian Oh to help tell Des and AJ's stories.

The production team includes dramaturg Kate Adler, stage manager Andrew Slater, assistant director Allison Wilmer and director/musical director Steven Carl McCasland.

Additional show times are Jan. 28 at 7 PM, Jan. 29 at 2 PM and 7 PM and Jan. 30 at 2 PM. A special educational matinee will be presented Jan. 27 at 11 AM.
