WARD 9, is a new dance play set to the music of Beethoven.  Its a disturbing thriller with shades of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest: Supervised by a diabolical nurse and her assistants, the residents in Ward 9 - are all celebrities who each went "over the edge": Van Gogh, Bobby Fischer, Sylvia Plath, Nijinsky, Vivian Leigh, Howard Hughes, and Ludwig himself.
