New Musical CAMP GINGER Makes Debut at The Little Theatre at the Actors Company
The solo musical will make its world premiere on February 26th.
Camp Ginger, an original solo musical, is set to make its world premiere in Hollywood. This semi-autobiographical, solo-musical comedy is about a fantastical summer camp full of ginger-haired campers and counselors helping a kid named Steve find his true self. It opens on February 26th at 5pm and 7:30pm at the Little Theater at the Actors Company - 916 N Formosa Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90046. The show will also play on Saturday, March 5th, 2022 at 5pm and 7:30pm. Tickets are $12 and can be purchased here. Some material may not be suitable for children under 17.
Steve Trzaska plays multiple characters in this one-person musical about finding and coming to terms with one's true identity. From growing up a redhead to embracing his sexuality, this zany troop of characters at Camp Ginger share some of Steve's struggles and experiences through "their" stories and songs.
The musical features live accompaniment by Noel Katz who provides an assortment of songs for the musical including "Better Off Red," "Mister Trashcan," and "You Play the Flute" to name a few. The show is written and performed by Steve Trzaska, with music and lyrics by Noel Katz. It is directed by Joy Mamey.
