Producer James P. Stanton directs his original anti-war tragedy
A Fortnight at Tripler and brings Battery Dance principal dancer and choreographer Razvan
Stoian’s The Vivaldi Dance Project to life on the same off-Broadway stage at the Marjorie S.
Dean Little Theater for an exclusive run of four evenings and one matinee, December 4-8, 2024.
A Fortnight at Tripler depicts the plight of a soldier who returns from Iraq to Tripler Army Medical
Center, Hawaii, where he is hospitalized. It is an authentic story of love and life shattered in the
milieu of the struggles of victims of severe combat wounds in the care of US Army medical
personnel. It is a hard-hitting tragedy but inspires hope. Contains adult themes and language.
Dance and baroque music loving audiences will then be thrilled by The Vivaldi Dance Project, a
striking new jewel featuring eight female dancers in an original dance composition.
The full-length play features actor Jean Wyler who doubles as assistant producer and director
and stars Jenna Motley as Sara and Ian Potter as the soldier with an unforgettable original
musical accompaniment by pianist Jack Lewis Warren followed by the dance piece performed to
Vivaldi’s Stabat Mater, RV 621, Movements I - IX, provided by Jakub Józef Orliński, courtesy of
Warner Classics UK Ltd, by arrangement with Warner Music Group.
Playwright, producer, and director Colonel Stanton (USAF, Ret.) is a decorated combat veteran
of the First Gulf War. The play was an Arts in the Armed Forces (AITAF) Bridge Award Semi
Finalist and was recently presented as a staged reading at the Public Theater Studios to great
audience acclaim.
Razvan Stoian hails from Romania and has won numerous dance
performance and choreography awards. As a Battery Dance principal, he has most recently
performed and taught with Battery Dance internationally and at the Battery Dance Festival.
The ADA accessible Marjorie S. Deane Little Theater at the Westside WMCA is located at
10 W64th Street, Manhattan, a stone’s throw from Columbus Circle and Lincoln Center.
The producer invites fellow NYC military veterans and the Public Theater’s Public Works
communities to attend complimentary. Please contact Melissa Wu, Marketing Manager for
