by playwright Michael Weller (based on Boris Pasternak’s novel), and direction by Des McAnuff. The work's lengthy development began at the La Jolla Playhouse in 2006. A rewritten production opened with success in Sydney, Australia in 2011. It was subsequently presented in Norway, Sweden, and South Korea, before opening on Broadway in April 2015 at the Broadway Theatre, again directed by McAnuff, and starring Tam Mutu in the title role. It closed after 26 previews and 23 regular performances. A cast recording was released by Broadway Records. During 2016–2017 it played at The National Theater of Hungary. War Paint Korie and Frankel reunited with playwright Doug Wright and director Michael Greif for the musical War Paint. The musical centers on the decades-long rivalry for supremacy in the cosmetics industry between beauty titans Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden. It premiered at Chicago's Goodman Theatre in June 2016, in a production starring Patti LuPone as Rubinstein, and Christine Ebersole as Arden. The Garden of the Finzi-Continis Korie wrote the libretto for Ricky Ian Gordon's operatic adaptation of The Garden of the Finzi-Continis, which begins on the eve of World War II and tells the story of an aristocratic Italian-Jewish family, the Finzi-Continis, who believe they are immune to the changes happening around them. It premiered in January 2022 in co-production with the National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene and the New York City Opera.
