Petruzzelli is a respected musician who has toured and recorded with some of the most celebrated artists in the industry. In addition to a long-standing relationship with Osborne, he has collaborated with Patti Smith, Ian Hunter and Rufus Wainwright, and is well known as a founding member of The Fab Faux.

Love and Hate has been described as a “fascinating, sexy and emotionally charged performance piece centered around a song cycle exploring modern romantic love and its undercurrents of anger, fear, pride and passion." Anchored by Osborne's distinctive, soulful vocals, Love and Hate is a vibrant, theatrical experience that suggests a complex exploration of the human heart.

Following its Lincoln Center debut, Love and Hate aims for an international touring production featuring Osborne, along with a live symphony orchestra and dancers to complement her touring band. Details will be announced soon.

More about Joan Osborne:

Joan Osborne is recognized worldwide as a formidable talent in music. An acclaimed multi-platinum recording artist and an eight-time Grammy Award nominee, she has performed and collaborated with Bob Dylan, the Grateful Dead, Stevie Wonder, Luciano Pavarotti, the Dixie Chicks and many others. She studied theatre arts in college and attended NYU film school on a scholarship. Via 'Love and Hate,' she finally has the opportunity to bring together her three lifelong passions in one unique production: “From the beginning, the music of Love and Hate seemed to cry out for a more theatrical presentation that I have ever attempted before," she says. “I'm so excited to have a chance to explore new territory as an artist, and so grateful to Lincoln Center for welcoming this new project into their Songbook Series."
