Tulipomania
The Musical
Book, Music and Lyrics by MICHAEL OGBORN Directed by TERRENCE J. NOLEN On the F. Otto Haas Stage May 24 - July 1, 2012 
Before we had the subprime mortgage crisis, Holland had the Tulip bulb bubble. Six strangers in an Amsterdam hash bar recall this seedy story of love, sex, money, and power. From the writer and composer of Café Puttanesca and Baby Case comes a new musical that gets high off our financial lows. Recommended for 9th grade and older. Contains depictions of casual drug use. Tulipomania: The Musical is produced under the auspices of the Arden’s Independence Foundation New Play Showcase. This play is supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts. 
A new musical from the team behind the Barrymore Award-winning Baby Case.
