Tiny Beautiful Things

A celebration of the simple beauty of being human, this funny and deeply touching exploration of resilience is based on Cheryl Strayed's (Wild) journey as the beloved anonymous advice columist for "Dear Sugar." Over the years, thousands of people turned to Sugar for words of wisdom, compassion, and hope. At first unsure, Sugar finds a way to weave her own life experiences together with the deep yearning and heartrending questions from her readers. Brilliantly adapted for the stage by Nia Vardalos, the Academy Award-nominated writer of My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

Dear friends,<br />

They say a picture’s worth a thousand words. So what about actually seeing the thing in front of<br />

you?<br />

How many words—for that matter, how many pictures—does it take to capture that feeling?<br />

During the year when none of us were able to sit in a live theatre audience, we may have<br />

answered that: you can’t. The sensation of live performance, intimately experienced in a shared<br />

space, can’t be captured or reproduced. When you sit down here, when you hear the murmur of<br />

the audience around you, when everything goes dark for a moment, and then a human being<br />

walks out onto the stage—<br />

It’s singular. If you haven’t signed on for this whole season yet, you should. Every one of these<br />

nights is distinct and memorable, and every one you miss is just gone. Make a plan, put the dates<br />

on the calendar—save some money while you’re at it. It’s worth it.<br />

We’re delighted to have you here with us at the theatre.<br />

Enjoy the show!<br />

Dear friends and supporters,<br />

TheatreSquared is working hard to thrive during a period<br />

that continues to be defined by uncertainty and change. The<br />

company has kept intact—and grown—its talented team,<br />

garnering rave national reviews for its work; and it continues<br />

to take meaningful steps to advance equity and inclusion. On<br />

behalf of the Board, I want to salute the agility, innovation,<br />

and hard work of<br />

this group of artists and arts professionals. It’s an inspiration<br />

to watch.<br />

I also want to thank you. Without the steadfast charitable<br />

support of this community—the generosity, kindness, and strength of our loyal donors—<br />

community with us. Will you join this company and vision? Consider a gift to make this<br />

work possible so that we can all move forward together.<br />
