1st Stage Announces UNDER THE SEA WITH DREDGIE MCGEE
The cast features Suzy Alden, Linda Bard, Natalie Cutcher, Ezinne Elele, Lee Gerstenhaber, Matthew Aldwin McGee, and Jacob Yeh.
Under the Sea with Dredgie McGee is a delightfully kooky, innovative production, sure to take you to a magical world far below our own. A splash of the 'Muppet Show', 'The Tonight Show', 'Pee Wee's Playhouse', and 'Pirates of the Caribbean', blended with a touch of macabre (á la Tim Burton), this vibrant and unique theatrical event is designed for ages 8 and up (so bring the family!). Featuring pirates, ghosts, monsters, mermaids, and a colorful cast of puppet characters this visually exciting story has a treasure chest full of heart. Under the Sea with Dredgie McGee offers a vivid, vivacious, and snarky storytelling experience for school age children, teenagers, and adults alike.
The cast features Suzy Alden, Linda Bard, Natalie Cutcher, Ezinne Elele, Lee Gerstenhaber, Matthew Aldwin McGee, and Jacob Yeh.
