Here's how producers characterize the show: "In Jimmy Maize's sweeping re-imagining of Edgar Lee Masters' seminal 1915 book of poetry, a cast of one-hundred brings to life the collection of epitaphs that vividly depict life in the fictional Midwestern town of Spoon River, as told from the perspective of its deceased residents. Maize's epic adaptation incorporates live music and dance, giving new life to the innovative spirit of Masters' work and updating it for contemporary audiences."

Other members of the creative team include scenic consultant Mikaela Liakata, costume designer Abigail Hahn, lighting designer David Bengali and production stage manager Aislinn Curry. Matthew Kagen produces. The Invisible Dog Art Center is located at 51 Bergen Street in Brooklyn. For tickets, visit BrownPaperTickets.com. For more information, visit SpoonRiverNYC.com.
