RENT

posted on December 12th, 2009 at 6:42 PM by Steven Stanley


Is there anyone out there who doesn’t know the story of Jonathan Larson and Rent?  About how aspiring musical theater writer/composer Jon spent years trying to make a name for himself only to encounter setback upon setback until finally, on the eve of Rent’s first off-Broadway preview performance, he passed away suddenly, only days before his thirty-sixth birthday… About how Rent got rave after rave in the New York press and won Jon posthumously the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, the Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Original Score, and Best Book of a Musical—and countless others too numerous to mention…  About how Rent went on to become the seventh longest-running show in Broadway history…

JUST IMAGINE

posted on December 10th, 2009 at 6:51 PM by Steven Stanley


Just imagine you could turn back time and spend two hours with one of the most influential music superstars of the 20th Century. Just imagine that this pop music legend is John Lennon, a month or so before his tragic murder at the age of forty.  Just imagine that during these two hours, you could hear Lennon perform live and in person several dozen of his greatest compositions, backed by some of the best rock musicians in the business.  Just imagine that Lennon would, between songs, share stories about his life—from his childhood in working class Liverpool to his rise to superstardom in the mid-60s to the controversies which surrounded him during the turbulent Vietnam years to the happiness he eventually found as husband and father.  Just imagine that all this could actually take place in an intimate setting, say in one of L.A.’s finest 99-seat theaters.

THE EIGHT: REINDEER MONOLOGUES

posted on December 9th, 2009 at 6:56 PM by Steven Stanley


Get ready for the funniest (and filthiest) Christmas show in town. It’s Jeff Goode’s The Eight: Reindeer Monologues, now in its sixth consecutive year of shocking adults-only audiences into hysterical laughter at The Chance Theater in Anaheim Hills.  What else would you expect from the writer of Poona The Fuckdog And Other Plays For Children?  Like Poona, The Eight: Reindeer Monologues is definitely not for children.

SEUSSICAL THE MUSICAL

posted on December 8th, 2009 at 8:13 PM by Steven Stanley


Since Dr. Seuss’s very first children’s book, And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street (written way back in 1937), kids have grown up with the good doctor.  Who among us hasn’t read (or had read to us) Dr. Seuss classics like The Cat In The Hat, Horton Hears A Who, or Horton Hatches The Egg?  With so many Dr. Seuss fans of all ages all over the planet, it’s no wonder that Dr. Seuss eventually made it to Broadway. Seussical (The Musical), with songs by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, debuted on the Great White Way in 2000 and since then has gone on to considerable success in regional and children’s theater companies across the country.
