"Out Of Our Heads" will be a release party/concert for the cd of the same name, and will feature Broadway performers singing the songs of Kooman & Dimond. The cd is a compilation of songs that blur the lines between musical theater and pop, running the gamut from the absurd to the sublime. The recording features the vocal talents of Kerry Butler, Christopher Sieber, Patina Miller, Heidi Blockenstaff, Matt Doyle, Kyle Dean Massey and more. The show will be directed by Matt Gardiner and produced by Michael Alshooler.Michael Kooman (music) and Christopher Dimond (book and lyrics) are the authors of the musicals Dani Girl, which has been workshopped and developed at the Kennedy Center, American Conservatory Theatre, Cherry Lane Theatre, and the ASCAP/Disney Musical Theater Workshop; Golden Gate (Williamstown Theatre Festival); Homemade Fusion (London's Ambassadors Theater); and the family-friendly Christmas musical Junior Claus.Monday, July 18 at 7pm
