Producers Ben Sprecher and Louise Forlenza for Global Broadway Productions are pleased to announce that Sierra Boggess (The Little Mermaid), Brent Barrett (Phantom - The Las Vegas Spectacular, Chicago, Annie Get Your Gun) and Pia Douwes (Chicago) will headline an upcoming industry reading of the Broadway/West End-bound musical REBECCA on Friday, October 2 in London.
The Triad Theatre (158 W. 72nd Street) will host Bawdy!, a raucous evening of Burlesque, Variety, Drag, and knock-your-socks-off production numbers. Hosted by the fishnet clad baritone Jesse Luttrell, Bawdy! will be held on October 1st from 9:00pm-10:30pm. Special guests include Poor Baby Bree, Poppi Kramer, and the devilish Bawdy Dancers, plus the burlesque talents of Layla Lepore, Jewel Reebox, Krystal Charms, Ria Rhinestone and Erin Gellgems.
Annalene Beechey who starred in the West End productions of 'Marguerite', 'Wicked' and 'Beauty & The Beast', will release her debut solo album next month. The CD features arrangements by Peter White, Jonathan Williams and Richard Taylor. Featured vocalists include Julian Ovenden (Marguerite, Annie Get Your Gun), Rebecca Lock (Avenue Q, Phantom of the Opera) and Simon Greiff (Saturday Night Fever, Spamalot).
One of the most memorable shows in musical theatre history, Annie Get Your Gun is Irving Berlin's masterpiece, including some of the best songs ever written for the stage; unfortunately, it also has one of the creakiest books ever written to accompany those wonderful tunes. Although that script was updated and re-tooled for the 1999 Broadway revival, SCA decided to go with the older (probably from the 1966 revival), lamer and (we hate to say it) more racist version. It was not a good choice, particularly when the 1999 revival script is available; its judicious editing resulted in a tighter script and a quicker pace to make the show more palatable to contemporary audiences-especially in 2009.
Featuring a veritable 'greatest hits' list of Berlin's music-including 'There's No Business Like Show Business,' 'Moonshine Lullaby,' and 'Old-Fashioned Wedding'--Annie Get Your Gun is loosely based on the life story of sharpshooting star Annie Oakley and her husband, crack shot Frank Bulter. Debuting on Broadway in 1946, Annie Get Your Gun enjoyed long-running success in New York City and London and most recently was revived on Broadway with Bernadette Peters and Tom Wopat in the lead roles.
