Discover Asolo Rep’s new Second Stage Season in the Cook Theatre, featuring three bold productions in an up-close theatrical setting.

Welcome to the Second Stage

This season also marks a significant expansion of Asolo Rep’s programming with the launch of its Second Stage Season, offering a three-show subscription in the intimate Cook Theatre, putting big stories in small spaces. The series includes the beloved holiday classic It’s A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play; the world premiere of Jennifer Maisel’s sweeping 20th-century drama, Provenance; and Bootleg: America Sings 1927, an immersive cabaret celebrating the words and music of a remarkable year in American thought and culture.
