Suggested by the letters of Kurt Weill and Lotte Lenya, LoveMusik features a book by Pulitzer and Tony Award®-winner Alfred Uhry (Driving Miss Daisy, Parade), and was directed by 21-time Tony Award® winner Harold Prince (The Phantom of the Opera, Cabaret, and Sweeney Todd).
LoveMusik follows the lives of the unlikeliest of lovers – the brilliant, intellectual German composer Kurt Weill (Michael Cerveris) and the woman who became his muse and star, Lotte Lenya (Donna Murphy). LoveMusik is an epic romance, set in Berlin, Paris, Broadway and Hollywood, spanning 25 years in the lives of this complicated couple.
Cerveris and Murphy both received Tony Award® nominations for their performances in LoveMusik. LoveMusik was honored with four Tony Award® nominations; 12 Drama Desk nominations, receiving two awards for Donna Murphy’s performance and Jonathan Tunick’s orchestrations; and five Outer Critics Circle nominations, receiving two awards for Donna Murphy and David Pittu’s performances.
