A bevy of accomplished Broadway and off-Broadway composers and writers have created the ultimate revue. THE NO-FRILLS REVUE is a melodic, "not liable to date in our lifetime" satire: a sort of musical Saturday Night Live!
Conceived by director/lyricist Martin Charnin (ANNIE), THE NO-FRILLS REVUE
takes its cue from the brilliantly sardonic topical revues of the
1950's, employing original songs, sketches, a small cast and trio of
musicians in an hilarious all-out assault on the world as we know it:
onomatopoetic names; the terrors of a high school reunion; extravagant
rock concert benefits for obscure causes; ginsu knives; obligatory tap
numbers; people who go through the ten-item express lane with twenty;
and some intriguing "first drafts" of well-known musicals, including ANNIE as written by Stephen Sondheim and Jerry Herman's WEST SIDE STORY.
Performed without intermission, this snappy, fast-paced revue is guaranteed not to bore, run on or wrinkle with age.
