The Actor’s Gang takes on the Greek chorus in the new show, Topsy Turvy. Tim Robbins wrote, composed and directed what he calls a “musical Greek Vaudeville” that takes a stab at our pandemic and post-pandemic lives by following a Greek chorus disrupted by a mystery illness and their path back to harmony. Not to be confused with the 1999 Mike Leigh movie Topsy-Turvy about Gilbert and Sullivan (no? Just us? Worth streaming it!). Robbins hosts a Q&A following Friday performances; Thursdays are pay-what-you-can.
