Vegas Stars of Phantom, Spamalot Etc. Set for 7/14 Reading
Members of the casts of Mamma Mia!, The Producers, Spamalot and Phantom: The Las Vegas Spectacular will present a repeat performance of God Lives in Glass on Saturday, July 14th, to benefit Family Promise, a local non-profit organization that assists Las Vegas homeless families.
"God Lives in Glass was presented last November to a sold out crowd, and incredible reviews! Back by popular demand, this one day musical event presents 16 songs from rap to reggae to pop to gospel, representing Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Islam and other diverse faiths from around the world. The performance will be staged Saturday, July 14th, 2007, at 2 PM at Community Lutheran Church, 2720 E. Tropicana Ave. A minimum donation of $30 per ticket benefits Family Promise of Las Vegas, a local non-profit organization that helps homeless families get off the streets, find employment and move back into their homes," state press notes.
The theatrical concert is based on the book, "God Lives in Glass," by Robert J. Landy, Ph.D., an NYU drama therapy professor who interviewed children from around the world about their perceptions of God. Composer Keith Thompson, who recently moved to Las Vegas as musical director of We Will Rock You, Hairspray, and The Producers worked with Landy and Greg Ganakas to adapt the book into a musical revue.
