The cast of Lestat recorded their original Broadway cast album today, May 22, at Sony Studios. Based on Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles, Lestat is the first theatrical score from the songwriting team of Elton John and Bernie Taupin. The cast recording of Lestat is produced by Guy Babylon and Matt Still for Mercury Records and will be in stores this July.
Lestat stars in the title role, Carolee Carmello as Gabrielle, Drew Sarich as Armand, Jim Stanek as Louis, Roderick Hill as Nicolas, Michael Genet as Marius and Allison Fischer as Claudia in a cast of 21. Lestat, currently playing at the Palace Theatre, was nominated for two 2006 Tony Awards including Carolee Carmello for Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical, and Susan Hilferty for Best Costume Design of a Musical.
