A God in the Waters

Tonight’s the big night: the world premiere of renowned but controversial classical composer Peter Loredan’s second symphony—purportedly his last—at New York’s Lincoln Center. That makes it a big night, too, for his wife Emilia, who’s spent decades managing the maestro’s prickly ego and fits of despair, and for his musician son Anthony, who, along with girlfriend Amy, harbors a surprise he hopes will please the old man. At the post-concert celebration, a hotel worker named Eleven enters the mix and upends expectations in David Brendan Hopes’ delightful, moving, and masterful exploration of the making of art and the forging of family, A God in the Waters.

The Sublime Theater presents the world premiere of A God in the Waters, by David Brendan Hopes. Starring Steven Samuels as Peter, Kathy O’Connor as Emilia, Jon Stockdale as Anthony, Olivia Stuller as Amy, and Adam Olson as Eleven. With set and costumes by Kayren McKnight, lighting by Jason Williams, choreography by Kristi DeVille, stage management by Samara Ross-Halleck and Amanda McLoughlin, and production management by Dakota Mann. Directed by Steven Samuels.
