Chromolume Theatre Announces Final 2017 Production PACIFIC OVERTURES
Chromolume Theatre at the Attic has announced the final production of its 2017 Season of Musicals, Stephen Sondheim's Pacific Overtures. Opening on Friday, December 1 at 8pm, the show will play a strictly limited engagement of 12 performances through December 17. The Chromolume production will feature musical direction by Daniel Yokomizo, choreography by Michael Marchak, and will be directed by James Esposito.
The cast will feature (in alphabetical order) Cesar Cipriano, Peter Jeensalute, Daniel Koh, Daryl Leonardo, Marcel Licera, Gibran Mahmud, Kevin Matsumoto, John Sala, Rueben Uy, Julia May Wong, and Paul Wong. Scenic design is by Hector Figueroa, lighting design is by Jesse Baldridge, and costume design is by Kara McLeod. The stage manager is Veronica Vasquez.
The Chromolume production of Pacific Overtures will be the first one in Los Angeles in 18 years. The show had its Broadway premiere in 1976 and was nominated for 10 Tony Awards. The story is set in 1853 and follows the difficult Westernization of Japan, told from the point of view of the Japanese. In particular, the story focuses on the lives of two friends caught in the change. With music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by John Weidman with additional material by Hugh Wheeler, the score is generally considered to be one of Sondheim's most ambitious and sophisticated efforts.
Pacific Overtures opens on Friday, December 1 at 8pm. The regular performance schedule is Friday and Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 2pm & 7pm through December 17. Tickets are $30 and may be purchased online at www.crtheatre.com or by telephone at (323) 205-1617. Chromolume Theatre at the Attic is located at 5429 W.
