Photo Flash: First Look at PRELUDES at Firehouse Theatre
Firehouse Theatre has released production photos from their production of Dave Malloy's new musical PRELUDES. Check them out below!
On the surface this head-trippy musical fantasia covers the three years of writer's block and the hypnotherapy treatment that Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff underwent after the disastrous premiere of his Symphony No. 1. But beneath the surface is composer/writer Dave Malloy's innovative probings about genius, success/failure, parallel universes, and the process of making art that's told in a collage of musical styles from klezmer to punk rock.
?Malloy is the creator of the Broadway hit NATASHA, PIERRE & THE GREAT COMET OF 1812, as well as many other award-winning musicals.
