'Not Quite Junk... In the Trunk' with NYTB at The Duplex, Jan.14

On Monday, January 14 New York Theatre Barn will kick off 2008 with its monthly series dedicated to promoting new writers, composers and performers, "NYTB at the Duplex."

The evening will begin with a new cabaret from singer/songwriter Dani Rhodes entitled On The Rhodes of Love.

Following Dani Rhodes will be a new concert developed and directed by New York Theatre Barn's Producing Artistic Director Joe Barros, Not Quite Junk… In the Trunk, to feature music which has been cut from some of your favorite musicals and some that will soon will be. Cut songs from the musicals Wicked, The Last 5 Years, Avenue Q, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, Pippin, Once on This Island, Side Show, Next to Normal, and I Married Wyatt Earp will be presented by Lisa Howard (Spelling Bee), Joe Cassidy (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), Nick Adams (A Chorus Line), Stanley Bahorek (Spelling Bee), Jared Gertner (Spelling Bee), Sheilah Rae (Applause), Anna Ty Bergman, Tori Scott, Cait Doyle and Jeremy Pasha with music direction by Chris Kong. 

NYTB at the Duplex is the continuation of New York Theatre Barn's previous series, NYTB in the D-Lounge, which took place at the Daryl Roth D-Lounge each month. NYTB at the Duplex will continue to highlight new composers, writers and performers each month and will be the first step for projects that will continue to be developed by New York Theatre Barn.
