Janelle McDermoth, David Andino, Brynn Williams & More to Sing Music of Britt Bonney
On Sunday, June 18th, songwriter Britt Bonney will present an evening of her music at the Laurie Beechman Theatre, performed by several Broadway veterans. Audiences will hear a special preview of Britt's newest show Montgomery, featuring Janelle McDermoth as civil rights leader Jo Ann Robinson and Brynn Williams as 15-year-old Claudette Colvin. The concert, entitled "Make a Move: The Music of Britt Bonney," will also include songs written in collaboration with Nadav Wiesel, Anna Marquardt, and David Ballard.
Singing Ms. Bonney's music will be Janelle McDermoth (A Bronx Tale), David Andino (Amélie), Brynn Williams (13, Bye Bye Birdie), George Abud (The Band's Visit), Jillian Gottlieb (Di Goldene Kale), Anita Welch (For the Last Time, Avenue Q), Eric R. Williams (Into the Woods), Nadav Wiesel (The Femme Fatale Show), Eileen Hanley (Company), Jayson Kerr (How the Grinch Stole Christmas), and 10-year-old Sabrina Smith in her New York City debut.
Here's how the show is billed: "Join musical theater writer Britt Bonney & friends as they present songs of dithering romance, murder most foul, teen activism, and overly-pampered housecats. Directed by Beechman favorite Ben Cameron, the evening boasts an all-lady band (with the musical stylings of Ann Klein, Ashley Baier, and Yuka Tadano) as well as a first look at Britt's newest show Montgomery. With an incredible cast of Broadway veterans, Make a Move: The Music of Britt Bonney promises a whimsical celebration of new musicals."
concert begins at 7:00. Tickets are $15 (with a $20 food/beverage minimum) and can be purchased at: https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pe.c/10169552.
