Pop! goes 2ndstage

AndyWarhol

Keith Alan Baker directs Pop!, a madcap musical murder mystery that peeks into Andy Warhol’s infamous Factory, as written by Maggie-Kate Coleman with music composed by Anna K. Jacobs. The musical takes as its jumping-off point the real-life, non-fatal shooting of Warhol in 1968. At that time, his famous Pop Art studio and hangout was at its peak, and competition within his artistic collective for each member’s 15-minutes-of-fame was in full effect. Studio Theatre’s 2ndStage presents only the second production of the show, after its premiere a couple years ago at the Yale Repertory Theatre. Tom Story stars. Now to Aug. 7. Studio Theatre’s 2ndStage, 14th & P Streets NW. Call 202-332-3300 or visit studiotheatre.org.
