THE CONFIDENTIAL MUSICAL THEATRE PROJECT to Return to Los Angeles, 8/31
To understand what is coming, let's explain what happened on Monday, June 29.
A group of performers took to the stage and presented a musical, having never met and having had absolutely no group rehearsal. Again -- that's no rehearsals to figure out staging, no music rehearsals, no choreography, and no director telling you how to interpret a scene. The performers all learn the show on their own, with recorded voice and accompaniment tracks.
The first performance in Los Angeles was THE SECRET GARDEN, Books and Lyrics by Marsha Norman, Music by Lucy Simon, based on the novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
And coming up? What's the title of the next musical?
Well, that's all part of the Confidential aspect -- we can't tell you. It's a secret. It's scary, it's exhilarating, it's captivating. And it will remind you of why you fell in love with live theatre in the first place.
Come and experience the new theatrical concept that started in Toronto and has already expanded to six other cities before celebrating it's one year anniversary. Be in on the secret.
LEA GARBE (producer-director) attended Claude Watson School for the Performing Arts in Toronto as a dance major and started producing shows when she was 19 years old. Some favorites include Guys & Dolls, Enter Laughing, Fiddler on the Roof, and You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, which she also directed and choreographed. As an actor she has appeared in Anne of Green Gables (Anne), The Diary of Anne Frank (Anne), Nunsense (Sister Mary Leo), Bye Bye Birdie (Kim- Thea award), Jake's Women (Molly), and The Roar of the Greasepaint, The Smell of the Crowd with Reprise! Happy to be back producing theatre again after taking many years off to produce three children.
