Updates

2016 is starting with a lot of hope and excitement.  "The Rivals" is getting another Reading at The Westport Playhouse on February 29, 2016 and we are in the midst of casting.  John Rando is directing and my pal and collaborator Pete Mills is our MD again.  Pete did an amazing job as MD at our last Reading which went over really well.  We are very hopeful about "The Rivals" and it's future.  I am very proud of the score.  Peter Kellogg has written an extraordinarily smart and funny Book and his lyrics are superb.With the incomparable Harriet Harris as Mrs. Malaprop and John directing, can it get any better?

"The Honeymooners" gets it's turn at bat March 21 - April 8 when we do our final Lab/Workshop in NYC.  After that, it is onto Broadway once and for all.  John Rando is our Director, Josh Bergasse is choreographer and Remy Kurs is our Musical Director.  We will have our usual wonderful small band and a fabulous cast led by Michael McGrath as Ralph Kramden and Hank Azaria as Ed Norton.

After the Lab, I take a break and hope for good news on both fronts!
