An immersive drama about homelessness, a moral thriller about the intersection of faith and medical ethics, and the world premiere of a theatrically staged solo performance of the composer Franz Schubert\u2019s final songs are among the 2023 season offerings the Park Avenue Armory<\/a> announced on Tuesday.
Each of the featured artists in the season, which spotlights social issues, will \u201cpush the limits of their respective forms\u201d and \u201coffer perspectives that speak to the important issues of our communities here in New York and around the world,\u201d Rebecca Robertson, the Armory\u2019s founding president and executive producer, said in a statement.
The season begins in February in the Armory\u2019s Wade Thompson Drill Hall with the North American premiere of the British playwright and director Alexander Zeldin\u2019s \u201cLove<\/a>,\u201d a 90-minute drama in which actors are seated among the theatergoers (Feb. 25-March 25, 2023). The show, which premiered at London\u2019s National Theater in 2016, brings audiences into the lives of several homeless families staying in a shelter in the days before Christmas.
It will be followed in June by the transfer of another critically acclaimed British show, the director Robert Icke\u2019s \u201cThe Doctor<\/a>\u201d (June 3-Aug. 19, 2023). A combative play about medical ethics, identity politics and antisemitism, \u201cThe Doctor\u201d opened at London\u2019s Almeida Theater in 2019 and is now playing in the West End. Juliet Stevenson (\u201cTruly, Madly, Deeply\u201d), will reprise her role as the Jewish doctor at the center of the drama in what will be her first New York stage appearance in 20 years.
Next up will be the pandemic-delayed world premiere of \u201cDoppelganger,\u201d the German opera director Claus Guth\u2019s theatrical staging of Franz Schubert\u2019s \u201cSchwanengesang\u201d (\u201cSwan Song\u201d), a collection of the composer\u2019s final songs made into a cycle by his publisher (Sept. 22-28, 2023). The compilation, which had originally been set to debut in the Drill Hall in 2020, will be performed by the star tenor Jonas Kaufmann.
October will bring another world premiere, \u201cMutant;Destrudo,\u201d an electronic music-infused production directed by the experimental Venezuelan musician Arca<\/a> (dates to be announced).
The Drill Hall\u2019s season concludes with a double program that will pair a new piece, \u201ccommon ground[s],\u201d a duet featuring the dancers Germaine Acogny and Malou Airaudo, with a restaging of the German choreographer Pina Bausch<\/a>\u2019s rendering of Igor Stravinsky\u2019s \u201cThe Rite of Spring<\/a>\u201d (Nov. 29-Dec. 14, 2023). Performed by a company of 36 dancers from 14 African countries on a dirt-covered stage, the work explores the raw violence of ritual and sacrifice.
Beyond the Drill Hall, the Armory\u2019s intimate Recital Series will include the baritone St\u00e9phane Degout (April 3 and 5, 2023); the British tenor Allan Clayton, who sang the title role in the American premiere of \u201cHamlet\u201d at the Metropolitan Opera<\/a> (April 27 and 29, 2023); and the soprano Julia Bullock, who recently appeared at the Armory<\/a> in the technologically ambitious chamber opera \u201cUpload\u201d (Sept. 11 and 13, 2023).
