Cast Announced for Musical Theatre Guild's Upcoming 70, GIRLS, 70
By: Lauren Wolman
The Musical Theatre Guild has announced casting for its upcoming production of Kander & Ebb's 70, GIRLS, 70 which will play the Alex Theatre on Monday, September 20 at 7:30 PM and the Thousand Oaks on Sunday, September 26.
The cast will feature Chuck Bergman, Christopher Callen, Helen Geller, Pamela Hamill, David Holmes, S. Marc Jordan, Paul Keith, Marsha Kramer, Michael Shepperd, and Susan Watson. Guest Artists include Erik McEwen, Barbara Minkus, DeBorah Sharpe-Taylor, and Steven Smith.70, GIRLS, 70 is based on the Play "Breath of Spring" by Peter Coke and features an adaptation by Joe Masteroff.
70, GIRLS, 70 is ostensibly about the residents of a senior citizens' hotel who become shoplifters to buy the building before it is sold to developers. What it really is about is staying alive and enjoying every minute. Like their CHICAGO and CABARET, the story is a frame to hold Kander & Ebb's winning honky-tonk vaudeville score. If you don't come into the theatre humming "Coffee in a Cardboard Cup", "Home" or "Broadway My Street", you will when you leave... joyfully! 40th Anniversary Production!
