BEAST OF BROADWAY Closes 3/14 at Theatre Zone

By:

Theatre Zone's production of The Beast of Broadway, about Broadway's most famous producer, David Merrick, will close on March 14, 2010.

Based in part on the best-selling book "The Abominable Showman" by Howard Kissell, writers Faye Greenberg (High School Musical) and Robert L. Freedman (TV's Cinderella) have been writing diligently to bring this fascinating story to the stage. Enjoy this World Premiere event at TheatreZone before it embarks on a national tour. With humor, wit and intrigue, director Mark Danni's The Beast of Broadway world premiere at TheatreZone in Naples will delve into the dimensions that make Merrick tick. The writing team chose an intense, pivotal point in Merrick's life for the story they adapted to stage.

 Tickets can be purchased at www.theatrezone-florida.com/index.html.
