The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess
Presented by American Repertory Theater at Loeb Drama Center

This classic American tale is set in the 1930s in Catfish Row, a neighborhood in Charleston, South Carolina. Bess, beautiful and troubled, turns to Porgy, the crippled beggar in search of safety after her possessive lover Crown commits murder. As Porgy and Bess’s love grows, their future is threatened by Crown and the conniving Sporting Life. Single tickets for the run are available from 7/12/11.
