IF THIS AIN'T IT -- a musical revue by Don Arrington that reflects on coping, living and loving in New York City during these current hard times -- will be presented Off-Broadway in 2010 by Theater for the New City (155 First Avenue at 10 St.), with previews beginning January 7 prior to an official press opening on January 9, 2010.
IF THIS AIN'T IT is a satire that depicts what happens when a theater company that has lost its funding and its home joins forces with a homeless transsexual, Lady Liberty. A savvy person of the streets, Lady Liberty helps the colorful characters in the troupe round up an audience for their performances in a bid for publicity and a new home for their work. Will the despair of loss become the joy of salvation? The musical ponders, IF THIS AIN'T IT, what is?
