NAKED BOYS SINGING!

THE KEY WEST PLAYERS, INC./WATERFRONT PLAYHOUSE

IN COOPERATION WITH CREATIVE CONCEPT PRODUCTIONS/

ADAM WEINSTOCK

Now thru April 1, 2006. 8:30 pm. $35

      Fasten your seat belts Key West - Naked Boys Singing! is
coming to the Waterfront Playhouse! On March 8 this delightful
musical revue will open for a four week run, ending on April 1,
2006. Produced by the Key West Players/Waterfront Playhouse, in
cooperation with Adam Weinstock and Creative Concept Productions,
this celebrated show has been a hit with audiences from all over the
world playing to sold-out houses. The Off-Broadway production is
still running after seven years, playing over 2500 performances. The
Daily News claimed the show has, "Loads of charm and theatrical
savvy…really good, clean - if adult - fun!"

      The Players are thrilled to have Robert Schrock, the creator
and original director of Naked Boys Singing!, to direct and
choreograph the Waterfront production. He and producer Adam
Weinstock have gathered together a cross section of some of the best
cast members from the New York production, as well as from the
Atlanta and Ft. Lauderdale productions. Both Mr. Schrock and Mr.
Weinstock feel this is one of the strongest groups of performers
they have ever put together. The talented and great-looking cast
include Michael Fauss, who is the musical director, along with
Michael Chapman, George Livengood, Greg Morris, Christopher Skinner,
Cannon Starnes and Scott Wilson. The professional cast has extensive
credits on Broadway, Off-Broadway and regionally.

      The show itself is a smart, funny and fabulous musical revue
that features 16 original songs. The numbers are by turns hilarious,
poignant and wonderfully theatrical - it just happens that the cast
is naked. A team of 12 acclaimed writers have contributed songs -
Stephen Bates, Marie Cain, Perry Hart, Shelly Markham, Jim Morgan,
David Pevsner, Rayme Sciaroni, Mark Savage, Ben Schaechter, Trance
Thompson, Mark Winkler and two-time Emmy Award winner, Bruce
Vilanch. The show opens with the hysterically funny
number "Gratuitous Nudity," in which the cast throws caution and
costumes to the wind, and they never look back. Other numbers
include "Naked Maid," "Robert Mitchum," "Nothin' But The Radio On"
and "Perky Little Porn Star."

      Productions of Naked Boys Singing! have been hits in such
places as San Francisco, Los Angeles, Ft. Lauderdale, Houston,
Washington D.C., London, Rome, Sydney, Amsterdam, Oslo and Cape
Town. The show has not been without controversy, with productions in
Atlanta, San Juan, Provincetown and others being shut down by the
moral scolds of those respective cities. However, artistic freedom
prevailed and each production carried on without incident.

      The charming appeal of the show brings in a diverse audience -
men, women, young people, senior citizens, celebrities, clergy
members and all kinds of groups. In 2002, the Off-Broadway
production played to a sold-out house of NYPD officers and 9/11
First Responders. Unsure of what they might be getting into, the
officers decided to attend because they "needed a night out to
relax, and every single one of us enjoyed it! We went around for
days singing the songs," according to Officer David Held. The show
also makes great bachelorette parties. The New York production alone
played to over 1000 bachelorette parties.

      One interesting note is that Eric Davis, a long-time resident
of Key West and a popular local performer will be making three guest
appearances in the show on March 10th and 11th. On March 10th there
are 2 performances at 8:30 and 11:00. Eric was also part of the Off-
Broadway cast for many years. The Players and the producers wanted
Eric to be part of the Key West company of Naked Boys Singing!, but
Mr. Davis is finishing up an internship in LA and was not available.
These three appearances are a happy compromise.

      Tickets for Naked Boys Singing! are $35 and available through
the Waterfront box office at 294-5015 or online at
www.waterfrontplayhouse.com . Call the box office to check out the
locals' special on Wednesday nights - it's a great deal! Shows run
Tuesday through Saturday with a curtain of 8:30 for all
performances. As noted, there is an 8:30 and an 11:00 performance on
Friday, March 10th.
