Ethan Riordan To Premiere Concert Of Original Song Cycle At The Green Room 42

Ethan Riordan will be performing his original song cycle, Flicker, on August 20th at 7 pm at The Green Room 42 in Yotel Times Square. The song cycle explores themes of connection and disconnection in its various forms--whether it be moving on or standing still. Performing with Ethan will be Kerstin Anderson (My Fair Lady, The Sound of Music), Micaela Diamond (The Cher Show) and Sophia Gennusa (Matilda the Musical, Dr. Zhivago). This show is being produced by John Mara, Jr.

Ethan is a graduate of the Drama Studio at Fiorello H. Laguardia High School for Music & Art and Performing Arts, also known as the "Fame" school. He studied at Interlochen School for the Arts and Berklee School of Music during summers in high school and was a Young Arts Foundation finalist in Musical Theatre and a Young Arts merit winner in Songwriting.

A rising sophomore at Yale University, Ethan is concentrating in music and history as well as studying in the Shen Curriculum for Musical Theater. The Shen Curriculum offers a range of courses examining American musical theater. The program is an initiative of The Shen Family Foundation, through The Ted & Mary Jo Shen Charitable Gift Fund.

Under the Shen Curriculum, Ethan has studied with Daniel Egan, Joshua Rosenblum, Scott Frankel, and Annette Jolles.
