Altar Boyz Celebrates 300th Performance Off Broadway November 18th

Ken Davenport and Robyn Goodman, in association with Walt Grossman, Ruth Hendel, Sharon Karmazin, Matt Murphy and Mark Shacket, proudly announce that ALTAR BOYZ, the new acclaimed musical comedy at Dodger Stages, winner of the coveted Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical Off-Broadway, will have its 300th performance on FRIDAY NOVEMBER 18TH (8 PM)!

In other Altar Boyz news: the cast will kick off the Holiday Tree Lighting in Duffy Square on Wednesday, December 7th, performing their Holiday song (by Altar Boyz own Gary Adler), "What Christmas Is…" And, ALTAR BOYZ hits the road as well with productions scheduled in DETROIT (now playing at the City Theater), DES MOINES (opening in December at the Temple for the Performing Arts) to be followed by a National Tour kicking off in Summer, 2006.

Altar Boyz is the acclaimed musical comedy spoof of a fictional Christian pop group (with one nice Jewish boy), questioning their faith – in each other! When their soul-saving tour is interrupted by soul-wrenching secrets, hilarity ensues, as the Boyz learn where its fate holding them together, or just extra firm hair gel. With sweet harmonies, sinfully spectacular choreography, and an unnerving sense of fashion, the Altar Boyz are destined to delight the whole family. Featured in the cast are Scott Porter as Matthew; Danny Calvert as Mark; James Royce Edwards as Luke; Nick Sanchez as Juan; and Dennis Moench as Abraham- He's Jewish! With Shadoe Stevens as the voice of G.O.D.
