Here is a chance to see it live, in a McCarter Theater Center-Berkeley Repertory Theater co-production.
The play was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2007, when Vogel was on the jury.
James Warwick directs the world-premiere production.
Directed by John Collins, the company’s artistic director, this world-premiere production instead samples chunks from each of the novel’s 18 episodes, letting them erupt in all their verbosity, vulgarity, vivacity and — it is Joyce, after all — opacity.
Cross that with the trans-Atlantic success of “Six,” and you arrive at this production: a Lizzie Borden rock musical with an all-female cast.
