Michael John LaChiusa and George C. Wolfe’s 'The Wild Party' arrived at the Virginia Theatre in 2000, running for an accomplished commercial residency and capturing five major Tony Award nominations including Best Musical. Based on Joseph Moncure March’s scandalous 1928 narrative poem, the high-octane, through-sung jazz opera turns an opulent Manhattan apartment into an absolute psychological cockpit battlefield, tracking the toxic relationship fractures that explode during a single decadent, liquor-fueled night. Directed by Wolfe, it starred Toni Collette, Mandy Patinkin, and Eartha Kitt.
