Re-opens Wednesday.  Final five performances!!!!  
   . . . an artful skewering of the modern musical . . . What makes the show so funny is that the bits are relentlessly spot-on, from both musical and lyrical perspectives.  Michael Eck, TIMES UNION

      Abounader, McGrath, and Leifer have remarkable voices, and Brady is an old pro at singspiel.  They're all comic wonders and commendable hoofers.                                Paul Lamar, THE SUNDAY GAZETTE
 

              Eric Rockwell and Joanne Bogart's affectionate spoof of American musical theatre
 

 

      

(The Musical!)

                                                                                 Directed by Joseph Fava, Musical Director: Valerie Lord

 

                                              THE CAST: (l to r) Pat Brady, Steven Leifer, Molly Rose McGrath, Nick Abounader
                                                   

 

A hit in New York and London, critics everywhere are raving about this affectionate send-up of American musical theatre: one story becomes five delightful musicals, each written in the distinctive syle of a different master of  the art form.  The result is a witty and stylish satire, spoofing musical classics from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Stephen Sondheim, and including Kander and Ebb, Jerry Herman and Andrew Lloyd Webber.  With its humorous and dead-on spoofs of the best known musical theatre works of the past 50 years, this magical, musical tour of American musical theatre is an entertaining and hilarious evening of fun.
