Signature Theatre Presents Reading Of CAMILLE CLAUDEL Starring Jackie Burns and Hugh Panaro

Signature Theatre will present a closed reading of Camille Claudel on Friday, November 15 featuring Jackie Burns (Broadway's Wicked) and Hugh Panaro (Broadway's The Phantom of the Opera).

The musical will receive a full production at Virginia's Signature Theatre from March 24 - April 19, 2020.

Turn-of-the-century French sculptor Camille Claudel was a groundbreaking artist and a revolutionary free-thinker - but her entire life was determined by the men around her, from her passionate and tumultuous love affair with Auguste Rodin to her unsupportive brother to the gender-based censorship of her work. However, by combining her artistic genius with a fierce independence, she defied society's limitations to create captivating masterpieces that pushed the art world to new heights.

New Work at Signature Theatre is sponsored by Dan & Gloria Logan with additional support from The Reva & David Logan Foundation.
