An opera in ten acts set in Steeltown, USA. Moll the prostitute is sent to jail where she encounters the Liberty Committee, lap dogs to the omnipotent capitalist, Mr. Mister. At night court Moll learns how the Liberty Committee–a reverend, an editor, two artists, a university president–function as prostitutes to his sinister intentions. Written by Marc Blitzstein, The Cradle Will Rock follows these intriguing characters as they relive their stories, leading to a massive union strike that threatens Mr. Mister and his empire. With musical direction by avant garde classical composer, Tucker Fuller, CCTC’s production of The Cradle Will Rock heralded the outstanding artistry in this city and explore the play’s relevance for New Orleans citizens today.
