Growing up, writer/performer David Cale escaped his parents’ fraught marriage by singing in his bedroom and tending to birds in his backyard animal hospital. Lush songs, featuring a six-piece orchestra, and an intimate portrait of his mother unite in Cale’s vivid musical memoir of hope, family, and transcendence.
The Public Theater has added the New York premiere of David Cale's musical memoir We're Only Alive for a Short Amount of Time, written and performed by Cale and directed by Robert Falls, to its current 2018-2019 off-Broadway season. Previews are scheduled to begin at the Public's Anspacher Theater on June 13, 2019, ahead of an official opening on June 27 and a limited engagement through to July 14, 2019.
