33 Variations Starring Jane Fonda

Screen legend Jane Fonda, is going to be returning to Broadway in Moises Kaufman’s 33 variations, which begins performances on February 9, 2009. This play marks the first time that Fonda will be appearing on Broadway in 46 years, her last performance was in Strange Interlude in 1963. The play will be directed by Kaufman himself, and will be appearing at the Eugene O’Neil Theatre, and the engagement will play through May 24, 2009.

33 Variations tickets are a great way to enjoy some fantastic acting, and to further explore the mind of one of the world’s greatest composers. The play tells the story of Beethoven’s obsession with a trivial watlz, as he repeatedly creates new variations on the simple, repeating 49 second composition by a music publisher. The story follows modern-day musicologist Katherine Brandt, played by Jane Fonda, who is desperately seeking the reason behind Beethoven’s obsession.
